Exit strategy. And finally, store your $50 to $150 swimbaits and your $500 rod and reel combinations closest to the door. (If your house catches on fire, you want to get those out first!) BTW: You know I was kidding on that last one?" Maybe you were kidding but when my house burned in the '07 fires I was at Clear Lake for the Guard tournament. At first I thought it was cool. Like having a yard sale and one customer comes in and buys everything. Later I found out that they were like a team who bought a couple of things while their buddies ripped me off for the rest. So my advice? Take pictures of ALL of those boxes. The ones in the boat as well as the ones in storage. You will never remember everything you have when called upon to justify your loss. Put the photos on a disc and take somewhere off the property that hopefully will not be affected by the same disaster. Insurance companies ARE NOT your friend. They will pay you back as little as they can get away with. Just because you have the coverage doesn't mean you get the money. “5. Exit strategy.
