Elyse Foster, CFP® of Harbor Wealth Management recently spoke with journalist Mary Kane about the importance of umbrella insurance for an article for Kiplinger.
Consumers are often surprised by circumstances that can lead to their personal liability exposure, as well as the extent of that exposure, says Elyse Foster, a financial planner with Harbor Wealth Management, in Boulder, Colorado. Many assume their home or auto insurance would be enough to cover their expenses if accidents happen or they get sued. “You really need to be prepared”, she says. “People often think, ‘I don’t have enough money. No one’s going to come after me.’ But they will, and they do.”
