Recommended = netWorth * riskFactor where low 1.0, medium 1.2, high 1.5, rounded to next $1M

How does this work?

Umbrella covers liability beyond home/auto, $1M increments. Recommended is net worth times risk factor, rounded up. High risk needs more than net worth due to future earnings at risk.

Cost is ~$150-300 per $1M yearly, cheaper than increasing home/auto limits. Requires underlying home/auto with 300/300 limits.

For YMYL liability, $1M is minimum if you own home or have savings, $2M+ for high net worth or high risk.
