Quoted: <snip> (extra points if you get her to quote an asteroid rider) I'da never thunk earthquakes could happen here in South Texas until we had a 6-point-something a couple of years ago. Rattled the house pretty good. SonOfBlammO and I got the epicenter coords from USGS and went there as part of his driver's ed training. There was a house sitting at the spot. Looked fine from the outside. But now I'm just rambling. Did anybody see a chicken? . . . |

Do you have it? I used to carry Earthquake Insurance through USAA. Then the State of California outlawed that practice and required me to buy into an unfunded State program with a $50,000 deductible. California Earthquake Authority or some such bullshit. Sound familiar? |

Quoted: California Earthquake Authority, bullshit indeed $72,500 deductible  $1250 yearly Hell no, I'll take my chances. I went to the CEA's premium calculator page. It quoted me $104 per year for a policy with about a 15% deductible. ETA I tried lowering the deductible to 10% and upping the Part C coverage (loss of use) to $10K. That bumped the annual premium to $147. |
