Episode Synopsis

•  Expert takes readers from nightmare to sweet dreams
•  Why you read between the lines
 
(TRT:  19:12) 
What can we learn about insurance from Goldilocks, Rapunzel, Humpty Dumpty, Old Mother Hubbard, and others? Chantal Roberts knows.
 
Ms. Roberts, who calls herself an insurance nerd, has written a book putting lessons about insurance into major rewrites of traditional fairy tales.
 
She says that insurance -- just as in fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and fables -- what appears to be an innocent story often contains a deeper message.  Ms. Roberts says that if you want to know what is actually going on with your insurance, you need to examine the small print and read between the lines.
 
Ms. Roberts has previously written two books. Her newest book is “Once Upon A Claim: Fairy Tales to Protect Your Ass(ets),” (Tilting At Windmills Press; May 2024).
 
She says the new book provides consumers with a better understanding of property and casualty insurance and claims.
