Could you reb u ild or buy an o th er hom e w ith th e a- m ount of in.c.'.d:ance you are now carry in g on y o u r hom e? It won t cost you an y th in g to check up and you m ight be su rp rise d a t the result. Bill & Sue a re n ’t th eir real nam es, but th e ir exp erien ce m ight be of v alu e to you. You can re cover ag ain st som eone else if his negligence causes you d a m age— but you c a n ^ v ery w ell sue yourself! So d o n 't be n eg ligent in so far as insurance is concerned.
