I think the one that invented the idea of insurance is genius. He just applied the concept of running a casino into insurance business. "Banker" takes the most. Everyone buying insurance just like playing in casino. Do you know anyone can beat the casino????? Playing in casino is 1000 times worse than playing in stock market.

Being a policy holder in life insurance, you can never benefit it in your life. You are buying something that you are not use it, enjoy it, benefit from it in your few decades life. This is violating the concept of consumption.

Someone argue that you can leave some money to your love, your family. If you can't earn for them when you exist, what's point to give them some after your death. In fact, many of the life policy claims even less than the total amount of your premium paid. All those MULTINATIONAL companies with Geniuses Have calculated how to put your money into their pockets, why do u think you would win them?! Why would they sell service by your door mat and buy you coffee and make time to meet you to make you buy their products/services?

Someone said insurance can help you to save money. That's the most ridiculous thing in the world. I've a guaranteed insurance policy that total premium about $300k but 10 years later i can only get back 350k. Even apply some old fashioned compound interest rule, i can even have more than 350K in 10 years time + my money needed to be locked up. What's the point to buy insurance????

The fact is insurance genius also knew only life product cannot fool the people forever. “You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.” Quoted by Abraham Lincoln. Ppl would recall this quote in Mortgage Backed Security crisis. They included saving factor into the life products to continue to fool people.

The reason when the majority bought insurance is becos they think this:
I put my saving of A amount and gain 20% in 10 years while I KNEW i didnt need this money during this 10yrs and I didnt have some other better place to help me gain this at this low risk.

But if you think you deserve a little courage to try earning your own money in your own way, u shouldnt buy insurance.

My view on buying insurance are when you:
1) Unable/Lazy to save money
2) have extra money but zero investment skills
