I requested that flood insurance be added to my homeowners insurance policy. Same company, merely an added line item. All potential homeowners should study their intended property to figure out what year flood zone it is in, and act prudently.

I was required by the VA to have flood insurance...stupid living 50 km from the Ohio river and paid the house of decades early as it is VERY EXPENSIVE.'

HaveABall, you do realize that homeowners insurance and flood insurance are two different things??? Homeowners does NOT cover flooding.

A Michigan man turned his life around when he won a $2 million top prize from a scratch-off a year after he lost everything in a flood.

The feeling of instant karma was immense for the anonymous Midland County player, 29, who played the Michigan Lottery's $2,000,000 Lucky 7's scratch-off game and took home a $2 million top prize.
