Answer to "I have a question". OK, so how come the top players in insurance (St Paul, Travelers, Allstate, State Farm) all ended the 2005 year with record profits. Forget about FL being profitable. They made enough money to pay all those large losses due to the hurricanes and STILL made a record profit??? OK, where did that profit go? Back to the policy holders in other states? I don't thing so. Now they are talking about lowing rates in other states. I will believe that when I see it. I have worked for Insurance companies for 30 years and it takes an act of GOD and a lot of fighting to get companies to lower rates. Even in a soft market, the insurance companies fight tooth and nail to keep the premiums up. It only takes one company looking for cash flow to mess things up but believe me, I haven't worked for a carrier yet that wants to see pricing go down. We will wait and see.
