A third of millennial pet owners carry policies for their pooches. The same percentage, insurance for their tech toys.
But renters insurance for the largest generation of renters? Meh.
A new study conducted by Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. revealed that 43% of millennials are renters and less than half — 42% — of those millennials have renters insurance.
The study, released Oct. 25, also found that while millennials are choosing specific protection for their personal technology and their pets more than other generations, approximately a quarter of millennials are looking for ways to cut back on their auto, home and renters insurance.
The study asks: Why the lack of protection in certain areas?
Thirty-three percent of millennials said it never occurred to them to get renters insurance, and 31% admitted the process is too complicated, according to the study.
It looks like the possibility of an insurer showing a video of a cage fighter in action has taken the punch out of two lawsuits in which the pugilist was a plaintiff.
