"My landlord has insurance, so I'm fine." ❌ Landmark myth! Your landlord’s policy only covers the physical building structure—not your clothes, your electronics, your furniture, or your liability if a guest gets hurt inside your apartment.

Renters insurance is incredibly affordable, often costing less than $15 a month. Let Mathenia Insurance Group protect what's yours inside your rental space.

Get covered in minutes.

"I just need the cheapest thing that's legal."

I hear it almost every week — and honestly, I get it. Everything costs more right now.

But here's the part that keeps me up a little. Missouri's minimum property damage coverage is $25,000. The average new car on the road today? Over $45,000.

Do that math after a bad wreck and you see the problem — the difference doesn't disappear. It comes straight out of your pocket.
"Just enough" insurance is built to get you legal. It is not built to protect your house, your savings, or your paycheck if you cause a serious accident.

The good news: the gap between "barely legal" and "actually protected" is usually smaller than people expect — often just a few dollars a month.

Not sure what your limits actually are? Send me a message. I'll walk through your policy with you — no pressure, no jargon. Better to know now than find out the hard way. 👇

This Memorial Day, I'll be thinking about the ones who didn't come home.

I spent 20 years in the Army. Iraq. Afghanistan. Kosovo. I led soldiers — some of them barely old enough to vote — and I learned what it means to be responsible for someone else's life.

Memorial Day isn't Veterans Day. It isn't about me, or the others who made it back. It's for the ones who didn't.

The names I carry aren't statistics. They were people — with families, inside jokes, and plans for "after." They gave everything so the rest of us could have ordinary days: barbecues, long weekends, kids running through the backyard.

So enjoy the long weekend. Genuinely. That freedom to gather with the people you love is exactly what they protected.

But somewhere in there, take a quiet minute. Say a name if you know one. Teach your kids why Monday is more than a day off.

To the families who gave a piece of themselves and never got it back — we remember. Today, and every day. 🇺🇸
