I'm pretty sure form what old people say that a hundred years ago insurance was considered a very Non Christian thing that took advantage of people and that capitalizing on the tragedies of people was a bad idea.

A hundred years ago it was called a "fraternal society" and almost everyone was a member of one. It was like a social club that also provided health coverage, income insurance and life assurance.

Then (((Roosevelt))) got worried the fraternal societies were keeping america divided along ethnic lines and not promoting the melting pot he wanted, so he abolished them. The result was that they got replaced with big jewish insurance rackets which had no ties to the communities they were insuring, and the inevitable misbehaviour resulted in a mountain of regulation, driving prices up and competition down.

Then they make it so you have to take the whole front bumper off with a special tool or you'll break the shitty plastic screw washer things in order to just change a headlight.

My term 25 is $25 a month. For 25 years that is $7,500. If I die, my wife and kids get half a mil and pay off the house, debts and top up the kids education funds. If I make it beyond that time, I cancel the policy and it was a good $300 per year to give me peace of mind.

It is similar to hedging an investment. In an ideal situation you are going to lose some money on it. But you are accepting that loss to cover your losses in the event that things do not go the way you had planned. I am not turning my back on something like that no matter how much of a sham people on this forum say it is.

Exactly. They probably just came across someone who was trying hard to sell them the wrong kind of insurance because it pays a big commission.

No, mine was underwritten after I passed a full health screening. I die, it pays. The only way it wouldn't pay is if I committed suicide in the first 2 years, or don't pay the premiums. That 2 years was done over 10 years ago, and I'm not going to miss paying a $25 premium. The insurance you're talking about is either whole life or universal life, good if you have the bucks for it, for most people, they just need term insurance to cover a period of time of debt.

It's a jew extortion racket.

It's also the only real service the police provide. Police reports for your insurance company to fuck you over with.

Obama care was enforced extortion. Fascism at best.

Try claiming to be Amish. They view it as a form of gambling and are exempt from having to pay.

Lies, damn lies and statistics. If you made them fix it they would just jack up the girl's premiums to match the screwing the guys get. And some "Dad" is paying that one too.
