Had a call from someone selling home warranties. He told me how it would save me money. I asked him how. He said if an appliance broke and had to be replaced, the premium for a year is $600 and the appliance would be $1000 so I'm ahead.
I explained that I've owned a home for 55 years. Adjusted for inflation, that is $33,000 I would have paid in premiums. Over that time, I've replaced a couple of washers, a freezer, a couple of refrigerators, an OTR microwave. Had a couple of repairs. Probably spent about $10,000 that would have been covered by a warranty.
So put that premium in the bank and over time you will be many thousands ahead.
