Personal Finance (Not Investing) • Does anyone have a high-limit umbrella, > $5m? If so, what was your rationale?

How is it the opposite effect of what you want?
I'd assume trying to collect assets from someone outside of their insurance is time consuming and expensive, so with a $5m policy that may be enough to incentivize a lawyer and their client to settle a claim and be done rather than sue someone and hope they can later garnish wages, etc. But if they see that you have a $10m policy, they may be more likely to sue you because they know you're easily collectable up to $10m.
Insurance companies are not in the business of providing multi-million dollar handouts to anyone who files a lawsuit.
