#12: Don’t Get Insurance
Signing up for any new service or product usually involves some upselling. The salespeople are required to pitch the add-ons and encourage you to spend more money. It’s just an annoying part of the process. There are ways to be smart about it. Someone gave important advice when it comes to renting a new storage unit.
