What does an insurance company sell?

Most of what is called "life insurance" is just another tax-efficient savings products. You put money into more-or-less at will - insurance companies manage it for you (for a fee) - You can take your money back whenever you want or on the date specified.This is the "insurance" in the sense that the company will guarantee the amount that you can take back (for example in the form of the annual increase at x%) and that the money will be available in the date, set in the contract.
Property and accident insurance (P & C) also health insurance, a promise to refund your money for the damages You suffered.
For example, the window of your car gets broken, you go to the repair shop, to have the window replaced, you pay for the "damage".

You file a claim with the insurance company sending a copy of the Bill, and they give you the money back. (They might pay the garage directly as well – a process that, would in fact be different.) Or damage is the value of improvements to your home that burned. This is the same case with health care, by the way: the insurance company pays the Bill for you. The amount paid by the insurance company may also include reduced or are they just paying a percentage of the total costs, etc. There are many variations, but the principle is the same.
Other parts of life insurance work like P & C, by the way, imagine you die tomorrow, that would be the "damage" to your spouse and children. So you can take the insurance contracts that will pay the specified amount (say, 500 000 Usd) to cover the risk of death or disability (or disease), etc.

This is an example of the "follow me" approach to linking your blog and the social networks , although for Facebook pages your reader becomes a Fan rather than a Friend. Many people are confused about when they should use each of the types of "thing" in Facebook, ie Profiles - accounts for flesh-and-blood, living, breathing, individual people Pages - for websites, brands, and organisations that don't want to approve all their Facebook members Groups - for organisations that want to approve individual members who join (and in return, group-owners can send private messages to individual members.

How Do Insurance Companies Make Money? - How Does It Work Operationally?

How does it work operationally? Insurance companies can be much more complex than it seems. I won't go into details, but I will try to give a sense of the variety of things to do: Marketing and product development - we have to understand what our clients want and product design including "features" and guarantees (e.g., including dental health plan or not in limitation of the disease before the type of questionnaire that we ask clients to fill???), pricing, regulatory constraints, etc. and IT is, of course, for the system to support this product. Distribution - how we bring our products to the clients? Agents, brokers, direct sales channels are all there, plus the development of smartphone applications and internet sales.

How to rename picture files in Picasa-desktop

This article is about re-naming files from within Picasa-desktop, to provide SEO benefits for your blog. Picasa's desktop software is a good tool for organizing and editing photos on your local computer. And it is still available for you to use, even though Picasa-web-albums has been replaced by Google Albums + Google Album Archive. For pictures that are important in your blog, I still recommend preparing them in a tool like Picasa-desktop and then uploading the finished versions to Google Photos before putting them into a post, because: The desktop tool has better editing tools (cropping, zooming, auto adjustment, adding watermarks) and Picasa-web-albums does. It lets you control the size of the uploaded file It's easier to ensure sure that you still have full-size files on my local machine for printing etc, as well as smaller, more optimized, copies to use on web-pages. Picasa-desktop folders have a very nice relationship with files and directories with the Windows file sy
