Most retirees with assets over $100,000 carry higher limits—$100,000/$300,000/$100,000—to protect home equity and retirement accounts.An older woman with white hair, wearing a white top and light cardigan, sits in a car's driver seat and fastens her seat belt, with green trees visible through the windows.Full CoverageBundles liability, collision, and comprehensive. Worth keeping if your vehicle value exceeds $4,000 or you financed a recent purchase, but many retirees overpay by keeping full coverage on a 10-year-old sedan worth $3,200.Two men shake hands outdoors in front of a dark parked car, with a glass-fronted building and other vehicles in the background.Collision CoveragePays for damage to your car after an accident, minus your deductible.
