I recently reduced my Life Insurance premiums by several hundred dollars a year. It was much easier then I thought it would be, and I thought I would pass on to you how I did it. I used InsureCan which provides a free comparison of Canadian Life Insurance companies prices for your situation (age health etc). In the interest of full disclosure InsureCan also runs the server where StockChase is run, and that was the reason I used their service, and eventually bought insurance from them. However I must say that it is worth looking at, even if you haven't been considering renewing. The rates have changed over the last few years and if you are dollar wise, it's good to know if you are overpaying or not.
I was also recently told that the home page of StockChase didn't do a very good job of explaining what this site is about. So I will attempt to explain here.
StockChase watches TV shows where some expert in the financial district is being interviewed. These shows are usually Market Call and Market Call Tonight on BNN. In these shows the expert takes calls from the viewing audience about stocks, and they give their opinion of the stocks. At one point in the show the expert will give his 3 top picks. StockChase takes all this information down and enters it into a database, which can be viewed in a number of different ways. You can view the recent opinions, or view all opinions about a company, or view all opinions by an expert. The table views can give even more details and sorting options as well. I've found that StockChase helps to weed out my bad choices by seeing some of the background information on a company, and seeing what multiple experts have to say about it. I've also found that StockChase can give me ideas on stocks that have potential that I haven't noticed before. The StockChase registered members can receive emails announcing what the day's top picks are, as well as notifying when one of their stocks has been mentioned.
StockChase is being used by the general investing public as well as experts in the field who have come to rely on us as an unbiased third party. That is, we try to enter in the experts comments carefully, while at the same time acknowledging that we are paraphrasing what the experts have said.
Hopefully this helps explain what we are all about to the people who are here for the first time. |
