I’m a fashionista with a passion for purses, in fact, I collect them. To many ladies, a bag is nothing more than a receptacle for used tissues, old receipts and a dog-eared paperback book that only gets read in the doctor’s waiting room, but to me, a ladies handbag is a masterpiece of beauty and functionality. Now, you may think it odd that I would want to insure something as apparently unimportant as a collection of handbags but I’ve got a reason for this. And before you ask, indeed, I do have life insurance cover because, even though I value my handbags, they are by no means more important than my existence.
I don’t buy many handbags and will save for years just to be in the fiscal position to buy one, but the point is, the bags I acquire have designer labels and are extremely precious. In addition to what it initially cost me to buy the hand bags I possess in my personal collection, there’s the additional value which derives from all of them being restricted edition originals. My purses are rare, particularly the antique ones, and that’s why I’ve covered every one of them. Now, you may even think it strange that an insurance company might even want to provide insurance for women’s purses, but they actually do, and for good cause.
