In Part 1 of a two part series, the business of The Business sees Phil Colicchio focuses on those impacted by Superstorm Sandy. He's joined by Jeffrey Zurofsky, operating partner of 'wichcraft, a restaurant that lost its commissary kitchen and a lot of revenue in the aftermath of the storm. Also on the show to join in is Howard Sweetwood, Insurance Professional Specializing in Restaurants & Hospitality. Together, they have a frank and open conversation about the realities of the situation and the relationship between clients and insurance companies. Restauranteurs are not always on top of data and accounting - and Howard & Jeffrey discuss ways in which those in the hospitality business can address claims right now and be better prepared in the future. This program was sponsored by Whole Foods Market.
"There's going to be a certain amount of inequality in the business as this settles out [favoring] those who have more business experience." [11:40]
"A company is a lot like a body - it has an amazing ability to repair itself if it's doing its exercise and operating." [16:40]
--Jeffrey Zurofsky, operating partner of 'wichcraft
"Insurance companies are overwhelmed too - understand that. They didn't expect something of this magnitude." [22:35]
"As we come through this - I think it's important for restauranteurs to pay very close attention to everything - all the ancillary coverages that are included in these policies because often times they are over looked." [32:50]
--Howard Sweetwood, Insurance Professional Specializing in Restaurants & Hospitality.

This week on Flash Talks Cash, JoAnn "Flash" Fleming is once again joined by Andrew Newman, and they are talking about healthcare- specifically the new happenings with Obamacare. Flash summarizes some of the key elements of the new bill, such as the "individual mandate" and the "death spiral". Tune in to hear how some of the Supreme Court Justices weigh in on the bill, and how Andrew feels about it (hint: unconstitutional). This week's episode also features a Number Nuts all about prostitution in the Netherlands! This episode was brought to you by White Oak Pastures.
"I think employer-sponsored heath care is going to be defunct...it's too expensive for employers to pay for this. It's a very big perk they pay for- as they've done with pension plans through the years, they've now put the burden on the employees. More and more, the burden of the health insurance costs are going on the employees"
"You need the premiums from healthy people to offset the sickly people, so if this doesn't stop over time you're going to have fewer and fewer healthy people buying insurance, and it's going to be even more outrageously expensive and more difficult for Americans to get insurance."
--JoAnn "Flash" Fleming on Flash Talks Cash
