Town & Country Insurance Agency LLC - Fargo

Town & Country Credit Union We're on a mission larger than finances – to positively impact those we serve.

As school kids and teachers are dealing with distance learning, we look back to a day earlier this spring when Brent had a chance to read to kindergartners in Detroit Lakes. Won't it be great when we get back to the classroom?

April 15--NOT tax day this year! Remember you not only have until July 15 to file your taxes, but also to make 2019 IRA, HSA and other tax qualified plan contributions. There may be other things you will want to consider in moving to guaranteed income accounts, plans with some downside safeguards, etc--when things settle down. We can help.

So you've got a little down time. Maybe now's a good time to have a professional take a good honest look at your insurance coverage. And we can do this now, during these times of social distancing. Just go to our website and click on "get a quote". We will access your current coverages and let you know if it makes sense for you to make a change. No obligation--maybe you can even save a few bucks!

COVID-19 Update

Town & Country Insurance wants you to know that we are working hard to keep everyone’s health a priority.

Our offices are located inside of Town & Country Credit Union buildings in most of our locations. Town & Country Credit Unions have chosen to close their lobbies and offer drive up service only, in most of their locations, beginning March 18th. (More info on their locations and hours here: https://www.townandcountry.org/article/covid-19-updates)

What does this mean for us? As of now our Minot office will remain open, however the Credit Union has asked us to limit our visitors. We are asking for all of our clients to call our offices prior to stopping in. A lot of business can be completed over the phone and if an in person visit is needed, we will work with you to make that happen.

Our Fargo offices are located inside a Credit Union lobby, however we will work with you in the same regards as in Minot. If an in person visit is required, we will make an appointment with you over the phone.

If you are showing any signs of illness, we are asking that you do not visit our office in an attempt to keep our staff and other clients healthy.

It is always our mission to strive to be the best independent insurance agency for you. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions.

Do you run a business out of your home or have a "side hustle"? Making sure you have all of the information on how to protect yourself and your assets could be the most important thing you do! Just because it's "only for fun" or you "don't make much", that doesn't remove any responsibility for liability.

"More than one-third (38%) of millennials are pursuing an entrepreneurial side business, compared with 26% of Generation X members and 11% of baby boomers, according to a 2018 survey by Liberty Mutual Insurance.

Yet, 54% of millennials with a side hustle don’t have insurance other than their homeowners or renter’s policy, the poll found."

Check out this article from CNBC for tips on how to protect yourself. And give Brent a call for your insurance questions!

Today's Windshield Wisdom is a Steven Wrightism...

"If it’s zero degrees today and it’s going to be twice as cold tomorrow, what will the temperature be?"

Thank goodness it's been pretty warm this week!!

It's ! Do you have a favorite charity? When I asked Brent about his favorites, he shared very wise words.

"The ALS Association and American Cancer Society organizations would be my favorites right now. But there is no such thing as a bad charitable cause. We all need to share what we have been so blessed to receive."

Here is a little Thanksgiving edition of Windshield Wisdom from Brent:

"Things I’m NOT thankful for this season:
Cancer—way too many friends and family afflicted these days
Slippery roads—be careful out there!
Mosquitoes—guess they’re gone for a while!
Yelling at each other over stupid things like politics
And….
Cranberries.

I can deal with everything else in my life. I’m blessed by many friends, family members, customers and co-workers here at Town and Country Insurance. Have a safe and satisfying Thanksgiving celebration!"

Did you know that Brent Ge**er doesn't like cranberries? I'm thinking about having a flat delivered to his house on Thursday. :)

What's your favorite kind of pie? And the question to end all questions... Cool Whip or homemade whipped cream?

"My doctor says I need to exercise. Today I was kind of pinched for time so I stopped at the mall to walk. If that doesn’t get me back into the gym, nothing will!"

Can you guess what Brent’s was? What did you drive?

Rachel from our office here loves Maxine quotes. She shared this one with me today and I thought you all might share her sentiment. Do you love or loathe Mondays?

Happy Friday! For most of us, it’s the last day of the week that we have to set an alarm. What time do you usually get up in the morning?

Brent is a man that's full of wisdom and on Wednesdays he's gracious enough to share it with us!

"When you go through the full-service car wash, you should leave your keys in the car. (I learned this as I watched the car wash attendants push my car out of the car wash by hand.)"
