The article 'A' should be lowercase 'a' because it precedes a common noun starting with a consonant sound. Also, 'to do list' should be hyphenated as 'to-do list' to correctly form the compound noun.

✓ Uh, for instance?
The phrase 'for insurance' is incorrect in this context and seems to be a mishearing or typo. The correct phrase is 'for instance', which means 'for example' and fits the context of giving an example.
