Think about insurance

Most people may think that insurance is just insurance, just in case of emergency.
What do you think?

I think insurance can be an investment for securities. Auto insurances are absolutely necessary and I think the government is right on forcing everyone to have car accident insurance.

However, life insurance is another issue. Insurance companies always have the upper hand when doing the probability calculations.

The returns of insurance are not always monetary, but sometimes psychological comfort.
