The answer to the great question of life, the universe and everything is not 42, as you may have been led to believe. It’s 1/137 (or near enough). This is the greatest of the two dozen or so universal constants. According to current thinking, without the physical and quantum relationships it describes, the universe as we know it could not exist. It makes sense to try to understand physical systems in this way because they generate observable and measurable data which can be replicated.

Saving money on car insurance can be a double-edged sword. You need to maintain enough coverage to ensure you’re fully protected if you’re in an accident. At the same time, you don’t want to spend more than necessary. Many people buy car insurance once and don’t think about it again unless they’re in an accident. But it’s a good idea to review your policy to ensure you have the best car insurance and check for a better price every six to 12 months, depending on when your policy renews.
