i wish people would start seriously realizing that all insurance of almost every kind is a pure scam and just….stop fucking giving them money. insurance is the mosquitos of commerce. a business that can just go extinct from the ecosystem and it would only improve.
I get the joke, I laughed because it’s so true sometimes… But:
Just weighing in as someone who has a lemon for a dog. Trupanion has been a life saver.
Last year my dog decided jumping out the car window would be a good plan. Broken foot, daily very visits for 2 months, drugs and daily care. 7k in Costs of which we paid 1500. Then this year he got the zoomies in the snow and slipped before we could stop him, blew his CCL. 9k in costs of which we paid 1200.
Not saying it’s for every dog owner, but I bought a car this year with what I saved (it’s a used car but I’d be in a shit box without the insurance)

Why does he look kinda like Spamton
Sounds like nearly every warranty program. Over commit and under deliver.
truth.
So, it’s just like MY medical insurance!
It’s just like real insurance!
Do you not even skim the policy before you sign up?

I suppose this may be true (the comic) but pet insurance has paid nearly 16k to keep my cat alive (I paid about 3k) with no questions asked. YMMV

This sounds like home warranties: “Is the cost of the problem higher than the yearly cost of the warranty? No, we don’t cover that.”
Okay but for real, anyone have any good recommendations for pet insurance?
Man, Johnny Bravo sure has fallen on hard times.
