Prepare For The Unexpected: Navigating The Complexities Of Insurance

Hello everybody. My name is Jennifer McSweeney, and I am studying to be an actuary. In the past, telling people about my passion for mathematics was quite a conversation stopper. Now, you can imagine the reactions when I explain that I want to work in insurance! Since starting my studies, I have become quite paranoid about the importance of insurance and how people fail to compare different options. A few years ago, I travelled overseas without insurance. I wouldn't do that now! Recently, I helped my parents obtain a better health insurance policy and purchased the most appropriate life insurance policy for myself. Some of the policies were quite confusing and difficult to navigate. I have therefore started this blog to help clarify some of the more complex aspects of insurance and encourage people to make sure they are covered for unexpected events. Thank you.
