Friday the 13th: The Sequel Nobody Asked For
Didn’t we just have one of these?
Another Friday the 13th.
Feels a little like Groundhog Day, except instead of Bill Murray waking up to the same alarm clock, we wake up to the same headlines about bad luck, black cats, broken mirrors, and ladders that suddenly look like OSHA violations.
Some people won’t fly today.
Some won’t sign contracts.
A few folks won’t even leave the house.
Personally?
I think Friday the 13th should be a national buying day for insurance.
Why Today Might Be the Luckiest Day to Buy Insurance
If superstition has taught us anything, it’s this:
People worry about risk.
And that’s exactly what insurance is designed for.
Life insurance.
Accident insurance.
Health insurance.
Homeowners insurance.
They all exist for one simple reason:
Bad things occasionally happen to good people.
Not because of curses.
Not because Mercury is in retrograde.
Not because you walked under a ladder.
Just because life is unpredictable.
Insurance doesn’t eliminate risk.
But it helps soften the landing when life throws a curveball.
Superstition vs. Reality
Let’s look at the numbers.
People fear:
• Black cats
• Friday the 13th
• Broken mirrors
But statistically, what should people actually worry about?
• Driving without enough insurance
• Being underinsured on life insurance
• Not having disability coverage
• Losing income after an accident
Those are the real risks.
They’re not spooky.
They’re just expensive.
The Insurance Industry’s Unofficial Holiday
If I ran an insurance company, I’d declare Friday the 13th Insurance Awareness Day.
Picture it.
Agents everywhere saying:
“If you’re worried about bad luck… you might want to double-check your coverage.”
It’s actually not bad advice.
Because while superstition may be imaginary…
Risk is real.
The Groundhog Day Problem
Here’s the funny part.
Most people think about insurance only after something goes wrong.
Storm hits.
Car crash.
Medical emergency.
That’s when the policy gets pulled out of the drawer.
But the smart move?
Review coverage before the unlucky day shows up.
The Jack Hapsburg Rule of Thumb
If you ever find yourself worrying about bad luck…
Don’t throw salt over your shoulder.
Just make sure your insurance coverage makes sense.
It’s cheaper than hiring an exorcist.
Final Thought
Superstition may come and go.
But financial protection never goes out of style.
So if today’s calendar has you feeling unlucky…
Maybe it’s the perfect day to make sure you’re protected.
