You invest a substantial amount in acquiring your house, contents, personal effects and other assets.  If you are an entrepreneur, you may have made significant financial investment in buildings, stock and equipment.  In the event of loss or damage resulting from fire, flood, earthquake, burglary or other perils can prove costly.  Extensive loss or damage may even result in financial ruin.  Purchasing adequate property insurance coverage ensures peace of mind and guard against financial disaster.
