In good times, it's natural that we pay less attention to our individual expenses. But, in today's uncertain times, regardless of our current situation, everybody needs to save as much money as possible. When it comes to saving money, the best place to start is with your auto insurance. Most Americans can point to a similar list of monthly expenses, including mortgage or rent payments, auto expenses, utility bills, food & clothing, and so on. Many of these expenses are fixed and can't be changed, so they offer few opportunities to save any significant amounts of money. Financial experts agree, however, that the one monthly expense where people can, with minimal effort, often find a substantial monthly savings is auto insurance. Auto insurance is a necessary evil that responsible people know they can't live without. In fact, for many of us, it's a payment we make month-in and month-out, and never see the benefit of. That's OK, because the coverage has to be there if we need it--but, it's also makes it all the more important that we don't overpay.
