Auto

Once you are no longer covered on your parent(s) policy, you will need to find insurance coverage in your name. It can be expensive for a young driver, 所以考虑货比三家,寻找最优惠的价格,学习各种管理成本的方法, such as coverage and deductible elections.

Renter’s

如果你要搬进公寓,你应该考虑租客保险. You may not think you’ve accumulated much in value, 但是当你计算更换电脑的成本时, electronic equipment, HD-TV, your clothes, etc., it can run into thousands of dollars. Renter’s insurance can be inexpensive. When shopping for a policy, ask about whether it includes liability coverage, 如果有人在你的公寓里受伤,哪个可以保护你.

Health

医疗保险通常是通过雇主获得的. However, 如果你的雇主不提供健康保险计划, you have two choices for obtaining coverage.

第一个是通过你父母的健康保险计划来维持覆盖范围. 联邦法律允许父母将成年子女保留到26岁. This choice may be relatively inexpensive, 所以你可能想问问你的父母,把你加入他们的保险计划每月的保险费是多少.

Another idea is to purchase a policy directly, either through a private insurer, the federal health insurance exchange (HealthCare.Gov),或者通过州交换,如果你居住的州有的话.

Disability

你唯一最有价值的资产是你未来的赚钱能力. 当涉及到你的经济生存时,你的工作能力和收入是必不可少的. Incurring a disability, even for a short period of time, can have substantial economic consequences, 使残疾保险成为人生这个阶段最重要的保险需求之一.
