At Plexus, we enjoy reading about insurance. Here are a half-dozen insurance stories we are sharing, bookmarking, and highlighting as the work week rolls on:

### Insurance Stories

-- A major carmarker will begin a program allowing owners [to rent their cars out](https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/national/2018/03/14/483236.htm) when they are not using them, a la Airbnb and homes.

-- In case you are wondering, Airbnb does provide some free liability coverage to users, and homeowners insurance may also cover some issues, as [this *Kiplinger's Personal Finance* article](https://www.kiplinger.com/article/insurance/T028-C001-S002-insurance-for-home-sharers.html) points out.

-- Here's a look at the type of coverages [home-based businesses](https://www.seattletimes.com/explore/careers/if-you-work-at-home-and-dont-have-this-insurance-you-could-be-at-risk/) may want to explore.

-- Will [marijuana-related businesses](http://www.businessinsurance.com/article/20180314/NEWS06/912319839/Captives-an-insurance-option-as-marijuana-sector-seeks-coverage) utilize captives for insurance solutions?

-- Dental implants are effective, [but will your insurance cover them](https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Pricey-dental-implants-often-best-but-insurance-12753610.php)?

-- On [homeowners policies and firearms](https://www.insurancejournal.com/blogs/academy-journal/2018/03/14/483271.htm).
