Warner Bros.’ sitcom “2 Broke Girls” is a fan
favorite that it’s among CBS’ top-rating shows. However, beyond the show’s hilarity
and often risqué jokes, one can get valuable business lessons from the
challenges the two main characters, Max and Caroline, face as they attempt to
make their cupcake business a success. A particularly good episode is “2 Broke
Girls and the Broken Hip” where they had to face the consequences of having an
uninsured business.
While
the circumstances in that episode were meant to be comical, if they took place
in real life, it would have been a serious matter that will make viewers realize
the importance of getting a business insured. Even their diner owner/boss Han
gasped in disbelief upon learning that Max and Caroline didn’t have insurance, saying
“How could you not have insurance? You need to get protection.”
Essentially,
all businesses need to get insured. This helps a lot in case customers suffer some
mishap while inside your store or your product caused them to sustain an injury.
Business insurance also provides protection to employees who might be at some
form of risk while doing their job. As a business owner, you can also use
insurance to protect your assets and the structure itself when they get damaged
due to a catastrophic event.
They
say that doing business is a form of investment with risks. That’s a fact. Having
business insurance helps a lot to reduce those risks.
