[403burnout]

Just a quick rundown of expenses as my renewals come in...

Property taxes: Up another 9% (they have now nearly doubled in 3 years since I moved here, from $9K to $17k)
Car Insurance: Up another 20% this year for cars I drive < 7,000 miles a year
Health Insurance: Up 11% from last year while never using it.
Property Insurance: Up 20% with no claims.

But remember, the bureaucrats want you to believe inflation has subsided.

Car insurance is the biggest racket.

I'm driving the same vehicle I had 4 years ago pre-Covid-market-stupidity.

It's even older now and has more miles and is presumably worth significantly less money. I drive <5k miles a year. Zero claims, ever. And I'm now in my late 20s as opposed to my mid 20s, which should presumably take me out of that risky 18-25 age bracket.

Yet my cost has gone from $105 / mo > $150 / mo for the same coverage in that time.
