Don't forget all the instances where you're legally required to have insurance in order to own or do something, like operate a car on public roads.

Some places don’t require insurance. Like in Virginia, you can pay the DMV $500 for the “uninsured motorists fee” and legally be able to drive a vehicle without a loan/lien. But yea, for the most part this applies.

Insurance companies don't make money by paying claims.

Double indemnity intensifies .

A rare case of the movie being better than the book, although in the book, he's an insurance salesman who hates the industry and its racket so much, that he's willing to commit murder just to get back at the insurance company and take them for a shitload of money.

Is there no payout insurance yet?

[–] TheWolfOfSouthEnd@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago

You mean insurance for your insurance? Then you’ll need insurance for your insurance.

Yup, these people just want to make money.

That's a very american view on insurance.

Correct is: "I am injured, do I have to pay for my rehabilitation"

"No!"
