When a person has a name like “Anna” and invites friends and Families.com members to send her questions to use in an Advice type of column then–the column has to be named–“Ask Anna.” Trust me I tried to think of something less obvious, but the other titles I could think of sounded like someone “trying too hard.” Anna’s Insurance Q’s and A’s Anna’s Insurance Advice Blogs Insurance Queen.

The closest thing to “celebrating insurance customers” were those young drivers who had already wracked up a few speeding tickets. I am sure car salespeople, and real estate agents have watched as their clients signed on the … Continue reading →
