Travel Insurance

Holidays are about good times and escaping the daily grind. While most people travel safely overseas without incident we do hear horror stories, like my friend that had a statue fall on him while partying, with no travel insurance his family faced a life and death situation where $100,000 had to be paid upfront to safely bring him home for treatment. True story!

For the minimal cost of a policy it is not worth the risk.
