USAA is for military members only, normal citizens can't get it as far as I know.

yep. you can only join while active duty. then you're a lifetime member. you can also become a member if your spouse serves.

I'll join the army tomorrow and sign up with USAA. Once I'm a customer, I'll shoot myself in the foot and go home.

My girlfriend got me in USAA because her grandfather served. Not sure what he was though. We have been living together for almost 5 years or so, so we have some sort of married by law thing or something of the like.

I am paying like 108/month which is pretty bad compared to most but it's great for me. When I had Mercury insurance it was like 345/month. Thats with one speeding ticket.

I'm 21... I was told when I turn 23 it lowers substantially again, then once more at 25.

lol I was a little over 17.. i'll be 22 this month also. I got an early start at life, haha. Got a job as soon as I could and stopped asking my parents for what I wanted and started getting it for myself. Also thats when I lived in Mass. My girlfriend came over for college when I met her, she stood with me till about 2 years ago when we moved to AZ where her family lives.

I never understood the whole married by law thing but i'm curious if that means shes entitled to half of my "assets" should we break up like a normal divorcing couple?

RCZDesigns, from what I understand with "common law marriages" is that if you live with a person long enough, techniquely by law you become married to them. 11 states have common law marriages, and there's no such thing has a common law divorce. which just means you have to have a regular legal divorce in order to legally seperate from your now spouse. something to that affect.

I looked it up and Massachusetts and Arizona aren't part of the 11 states who recognize it. That means I have to move to one of the 11 that do, live together etc in order for that to be in effect.

I guess USAA doesn't care though. As long as if we do separate she doesn't have me by the berry's i'm cool.

300/month isn't terrible. I've seen and have myself paid more.

I'm surprised though, when I turned 21 even with Mercury it went down to like 220 or something like that. On my birthday my insurance guy called me and said the company was cutting 130 off my insurance monthly. :D

She lives in Queens. Depending on where, public transportation is not a feasible option. NYC is just expensive. My mom up there pays just over 3 times what I pay for insurance. It might sound like an appropriate scale, but I'm actually comparing her yearly car rate to my car+car+bike+house rate. If you can make it there...
