Personal Finance and Investing

Someone in tx. sent in a lowball estimate of damage without stepping a foot on our property in Ohio, where we live, where the house is. We raised hell and Nationwide sent an adjustor to view the damage onsite. Unfortunately, the storm that hit us was after some of the storms in fl. and Nationwide added a $1200.00 wind deductible on top of the policy deductible, so even with an adjutor coming to the house, we got far less than the cost of the damage. Add to that the tree guys in Marietta are very expensive. My husband found a tree guy who did the work for the insurance payment and a Buick we were trying to sell.

When I got the big trees trimmed, the tree guy said if they were his trees, he couldn't afford to get the work done. We both laughed and laughed.
