Cost of 10 year protection about $1,900 reasonable?

[Sylvester72]

I am considering using US Repairs for security, firewall etc but their 10 year plan cost is approximately $1,900. Is this cost excessive, should I consider another company?

Were it mine to do, I say No.

Dragon Opinion

Two years from now, all your tech might be different from what you have now.

One year, or even one week from now, you might wonder why you spent $1900 for coverage you do not need.

One day from now, you might wonder why you allowed these people into your life, your finances, your hardware, and your network, to purchase a long term contract you do not need. 

Even if you are running a small or medium business and you have judged your firewall to be weak and you have judged your abilities to manage your own network are (and will remain) vanishingly small and insufficient, AND you feel scared and vulnerable, consider: 

Stay Far Away from service contracts that completely hook into your life, your tech, and your operations.
