Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knows good travel insurance to buy? I came across travel insurance clubs to join, as a mobile phone application, on myTravelSOS? My wife and I are going to Spain for a couple of weeks this spring, and need to join one of these insurance clubs. Each one offers a great deal on travel medical and legal insurance, but I'm not sure which one to join. The cheapest one costs about 15 dollars. I googled other travel insurance, and couldn't find any that offer legal insurance as well as a virtual personal assistant. If anyone has information on cheaper travel insurance that has the same features, or if you have experience with myTravelSOS insurance and have advice for me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Jenny, this posting would ordinarily be deleted as being off-topic/not germane.
However, Insurance is simply a form of gambling that has achieved a measure of general respectability and acceptance. In the 19th Century insurance was prohibited in Britain because it was correctly construed as gambling.
Now there is hardly a citizen who doesn't insure either privately or through coercive government schemes.
Essentially you are betting against the insurance company or government that something will happen. If it does, you win.
The problem is the insurers know the odds and you don't. So they are highly successful. If casinos offered the same odds they'd be prohibited or be driven out of business by competition.
Therefore your posting remains up as a most appropriate subject
