Buckey,

"I've always been rather humored at the irony of life insurance; They're betting their money that you will live, and you're betting that you'll die.

It seems to me that term insurance is more analogous to taking out a call option on your life. You're betting you will die within a certain time frame......or is it the insurance company that is taking out the call option? Hmmmmm.

In any case, I suggest taking out puts on your life instead. That way you're betting you will live and Dave will cease waxing ironic over the injustices of the insurance industry.
