I don't know who needs to hear this but you need to get insurance if you have assets that are your source of income and it can be insurable. This may not mean much to a lot of folks in developed countries because they're familiar with it, but a lot (and I mean a lot) of people in underdeveloped countries don't care about insurance.
There is poor awareness about the importance of Insurance in some countries, so some of the citizens and people never hear about it, or hear it always feel like it does not apply to them because of insufficient information about it. Some know about vehicle and property insurance, but do not know about health insurance even when health is an asset. While for the other category of people in the under developed and developing countries, they may have heard about Insurance but due to how poor the economy and how they struggle for money may never consider it as important.

Other than health insurance is not essential for me because, as long as I'm healthy, I can do many things. Besides, the regulations in insurance are usually unfair, possibly due to the type of insurance we choose or even the monthly bill we pay. And health insurance cannot guarantee someone's perfect health 100%, like in the case of a body part being amputated due to an accident... the insurance cannot provide a natural human limb that functions like the original. Instead, they compensate with cash, which in this context might sound like "selling our body parts for money."

I see all insurance as still imperfect. So, rather than paying bills for many type of insurance, I prefer to prepare a backup plan in case something suddenly goes wrong, like a business collapsing or losing a job. These situations should be handled with a healthy body. As long as someone is healthy, there are still many possibilities to strive for.
    Everyone has their view of insurance, for me insurance is an ironical advantage to living. Insurance companies now are deceitful and instead of us or our assets being genuinely or legitimately insured, the insurance story is now used as a plot to lure us into believing without suspicions and then we get unknowingly robbed of our earnings no matter how little we gather. The fact that we pay for insurance that is not even guaranteed ought to be a red flag. We've seen its application health wise.
   Now for instance, we get a new vehicle, we go to the insurance company, pay for this vehicle to be insured, and then something unplanned for and unexpected happens, can we be so confident that our insurance would be able to cover our loss? Even they're to pay for the damages, how much will this insurance company pay us that'll be tangible enough to near the worth of our loss? So the general insurance talk is just stealing in disguise because both then, now and forever, no insurance company will be able to insure our assets right for us. I personally, I'm against insurance idea because in worst cases, it's still more like one losses in both sides, first lost the asset and secondly lost to the insurance because he actually paid and renewed insurance payments for this asset that cannot be insured.

This is so true, a lot of people in underdeveloped countries don't take the issue of insuring a property any important maybe because most of these countries don't have functional insurance company and those that might be even functioning will be looking at ways to only make profit thereby doing unnecessary investigation just to avert making payment in cases when the policy is to even take effect.

I don't know what kind of insurance policy any country uses. However, in the society where I live, I have seen three types of insurance being used more, namely life insurance, health insurance, investment insurance. I got the idea about insurance from one of my neighbors who works in an insurance company. Life insurance ensures that your family receives financial support in the event of your death, so that they can maintain their standard of living. Health insurance covers medical expenses, ensuring you access to essential healthcare without financial burden. Investment insurance helps in wealth growth and financial security. I think that insurance, be it for life, health or investment is one of the future gains.
People should realize this but majority would really be just simply telling that it is really just that an another expense or a burden without even trying to look at about its relevance and benefits.
You might not be able to appreciate it out because we do know that we cant really be able to involved with accidents or health issues (hopefully not) but having or securing one would really be something
recommended because we dont know on what comes next into our lives on which it would really be just that normal that we should really come prepared or else then you would really be
having that huge financial impact if you dont have insurance.

Insurance is really that important, it is really just that people dont see its worth until they would really be able to experience those unfortunate events into their lives.
Also, yearly premium or monthly wont really be that too much of a burden since it is really that something an amount which you could be able to provide.
For the sake of your families safety and assurance then it would really be better to have one.

Every country has their different insurance scheme as what worked for country A might not work for country B. Insurance is expensive but it's benefits outweighs its expensive nature. Rich men do not bother so much about their assets because they are all insuranced. It is poor men who easily fall back to poverty when they make moves to escape poverty because of lack of insurance.

I got another sense of insurance when I learnt that Lionel Messi insured his left foot for whooping $900 million. This is astonishing and tells volume of the importance of insurance or assurance as it relates to life.

If you make money, get health insurance for you and your family, and insure your assets that are a source of income, businesses. Get a life insurance to secure your family's future.

Insurance is not easy to get in every country. In the country I live in, insurance costs are very high. In order to get insurance other than compulsory insurance and to pay for it, your income must be above a certain level. Some friends mentioned monthly payments for insurance in the comments, but in the country where I live, insurance is usually paid annually. In other countries, both prices and payment methods are different and I think there are big differences in participation rates.

Everyone wants to have an important insurance like life insurance, but it is not easy to pay for it. So I don't think most people in my country would even think about it.

I hope you would have a serious rethink and hopefully a change of heart concerning Insurance generally. Insurance has helped a lot of people have something to fall back on where all hopes is seemingly lost during an emergency.
There should be different licensed insurance companies around and you could compare their terms and services to find whatever would suit you best.

Nothing can guarantee a perfect health in the life of an individual. Not even an insurance policy. From your point, I think you expect a whole lot from insurance companies. There aren’t there to give you a new life as they’re not the creator.
They help out and compensate with some aid during unexpected events that are financially challenging and could rise when you least expect.

There are different types of insurance and they work in different ways.
Insurance has actually played major roles in businesses, let’s take a look at business interruption insurance that covers an individual in the event that if he or she does suffer a loss at the premises and are unable to operate, then his or her income and any overheads they may be due to pay would be protected and paid out on his /her behalf so that they will not have to worry about paying staff wages or salary .

The importance of Insurance is quite numerous because also in Business, financial compensation is provided against financial losses arising out of fire,theft,also any mishap that is related To Marine activities And other accidents And also To help individuals mitigate And hedge against the risk of unforeseen losses .That is To Say that Insurance is up To protect individuals And the Society atlarge .

This kind of reality happens a lot in my country too, where if we go into insurance the service should be good and appropriate, but in reality there are still many whose service is not good, maybe this is what I said from the start, you have to choose a credible insurance company.

I have an example from my neighbor who has life insurance, when the offer is sweet and sweet, but when the heir makes a claim, there are many reasons why the insurance company thwarts the claim by bringing up and looking for the history of the deceased's illness. If you are concerned about the history of the illness, why not do a suitability test from the start? The principle of "know your customer" is not implemented by the insurance company, so it is used as a reason that claims cannot be disbursed. This is very painful for customers and heirs, this is all the result of choosing the wrong insurance company so there is a lot that is not clear.
Many occur because they see some of the same cases. Where they are with their insurance but the service does not match what they expect is often ignored by their party and often this becomes an argument between the customer and the insurance because it does not match what is desired.

Ever heard a story from someone who used to be offered insurance, you could say the company was well known among the general public, at the beginning they said if it was more than 15 years then the insurance could be claimed, but after 15 years passed when the customer wanted to claim it, the company refused the claim for various reasons, who knows what happened ... someone told me that he regretted following insurance from the company because it did not match the initial promise that was said.

Even though we have chosen a clear and credible insurance company, sometimes claims by heirs are always difficult.

This is what most of the people says when the topic is all about health insurance. Because we're still strong and healthy, we can do a lot of things and we're safe from being sick.

But it's not the whole point. When you take an insurance, it's also giving you the peace of mind that any unfortunate scenario that can happen to us while we're healthy is covered and protected.

That's the whole point about being insured. You don't know what might happen tomorrow or within the next seconds of your life.
If that's what most people say, I think these people feel arrogant and think they are always healthy because every human being will definitely get sick.
In my opinion, health insurance is very important to take care of when you are sick, because you can't know when it will come, and what we need to know is. That every year health costs will definitely increase, and no one can guarantee that we will always be healthy, even though we feel like we are always healthy, in the long term we will remain healthy and this is something we must anticipate. And if you don't have health insurance, if you are sick, and don't have an emergency fund, who else do you turn to for help especially if the amount is large.
Yes true Health insurance is a very important thing because we may fall ill suddenly and at that time for some reason our financial condition may be bad and then we have to face many dangers if we don't have health insurance. And if you have health insurance, the insurance will be very useful during that emergency moment  So everyone should do it. Apart from this, it is better to keep some other insurances which may be in case of our emergency moment

It's all about the situation, the costs etc..but to flat out say insurance isn't necessary is to be ignorant.


It's funny because where I'm from if you try to talk to the average person about getting health insurance, they'll start giving you excuses like, "I'm healthy, I don't need insurance". When I try to tell them that nobody prays for an illness, nobody wishes to get sick, especially one that is very expensive to treat, but people get sick all the time, and a fatal accident can also happen. They'll counter you, "It's not going to happen to me", at that point, I just say "That's what they all thought".

Other than health insurance is not essential for me because, as long as I'm healthy, I can do many things.

This is exactly an example of what I'm talking about.
At least you can see that health insurance is essential, so that's a start. I don't know you and I can't claim to understand your situation but I can assure you that however bad you imagine things to get, it can always get worse. If you don't have any assets at all and no kids and don't plan to have any then you might be right, otherwise, think again.

Yes, we don't want to wait for our health to go bad before we get an insurance as we are not yet qualified for its benefits. It's going to be a wrong decision that we can get regret because we are now going to pay more for our health to recover. If only we avail an insurance at an earlier time, that would have been prevented. I'm not referring to the health condition but to the excess spending. This is only the same to a car insurance. I think each car owner has it.

So if they have it, then why not do the same for our health, when it was more important than any material things? And we are more fragile or prone to illness because we use our body and mind every day to work.

There are very different kinds of insurance, right? There are medical insurances, there are ways of insuring cars, houses, and insurance of business assets. If you can ill, I don't think an asset insurance will be of any help, but if you get robbed or hacked, then it can be useful.
If you have a serious business, and it can be reasonably insured, insuring it is a good idea. But you can't get insurances for everything, predict every possible situation.
Speaking of insurance, I had this idea a few years ago that crypto insurance is probably a good business niche because some people don't want to take full responsibility for their money, even cryptos.

This is quite reasonable to obtain as long as we have enough time and opportunity to have it from now on, because we also have to realize that the times we will go through later will not always be the same as the time we have gone through now. So as long as it can be quite useful for the future and can be obtained from now, I don't think there's anything wrong with anyone getting it for themselves and also for the sake of their own family. After all, each person does not know when he or she will experience a disaster such as an accident or illness, so insurance such as accidents and health can be an important point to have.

Not everyone has to have health insurance, for example. Now the government, for example in my country, has also done the same thing as offered by insurance companies, namely by issuing a health insurance program for all people and they can use it for treatment at places designated by the government. So, what's different here is that if we have entered the insurance program, we can claim the funds back after we have received treatment at the hospital appointed by the insurance company.

        -  If we have the ability to get insurance, why don't we get it? Right, as long as we can afford it little by little. For example, I have a son who is a boy; he is still quite young, but I am preparing 1 year from now and would like to get a plan for him, and when I have done that, of course, it will be for myself and my husband.

And the other things, like the car and health,  let's get them too if there's a chance, right? It's better that while we're still strong, we get insurance because it's also for the loved ones we'll leave behind.

You are right in pointing out that fees have to be regularly paid inorder to maintain a good insurance plan.
Those with white collar jobs are easily opened to such schemes because most times these insurance companies propose or present offers that is better suited to those with a steady source of income.

The best bet we have these days and see as insurance for the future is HODLing BTC or other forms of cryptocurrency to cover unexpected expenses that range from health hazards to emergencies.
We must consciously carry out all forms of terms and conditions regarding the insurance agreement with the company. Insurance is indeed quite important for people, but it comes back to how someone can follow the terms and conditions provided through monthly payments. There is no free insurance that will provide equivalent services, for example regarding health insurance, vehicles or other insurance. Unfortunately, not everyone can get insurance even though we know that insurance is very important to protect against all kinds of disasters that occur.

Holding bitcoin is considered one of the right ways because we don't need to spend any money as a monthly expense, its nature is not as a form of savings but to maintain the value of the money we have. But actually, I much agree that if we have good finances, we are included in insurance because there are many advantages that we can get even though we regularly have to top up money every month.

In advance if something necessary happen based on the agreement with the insurance is they will cater most of the expenses to their customer, the reason why there are a lot of company offering this someone few of them didn't use their insurance but in some case of course we cannot predict those people came into an accident the insurance company must need to support those needed by their client. Likewise, it's better to have than nothing that's why people keep urging having this insurance but of course as an exchange they need to pay for a monthly subscription or a lifetime well depends.
That's true and there is a kind of free insurance offered by the government through the taxes we pay or it can also be free school at state institutions that don't pay at all. Usually we enjoy this insurance for health costs when we go to hospital for treatment, but the service we get is the lowest because this insurance is not paid directly by the person but is deducted through taxes. There are also some insurance companies that try to use customer funds to make a profit and in the end the insurance company goes bankrupt because it gets into trouble with the law. Cases like this have happened in my country where insurance companies were unable to refund customers after they had legal problems. In the end, it is the customers who have deposited money regularly that suffer the loss and therefore, even though insurance is a solution, we must also look at a clear insurance company before joining it.

Being included in insurance has many advantages when we have an accident, so you don't need to spend any more money to go to the hospital for treatment and the damage to the vehicle is also covered. If business experiences a fire or results in a disaster, the goods will be replaced by the company and we will get many other benefits from insurance if we follow their terms and conditions.

Having to work and being secure is one way to think about this. Knowing that you are able to become capable of handling these types of things is right. Being protected and secure is a great way to live because you will never know what is coming next and it is something to be thought about when you have the capacity to.

Some people think of it as "when they need it" but others do it because they think ahead and I think being secure is the best way to prevent headaches in the future and be secure when the unexpected happens.

It's up to you if you want to be ready or not but I believe it's worth pondering upon.
It's best to plan ahead. People often say, "Live your life to the fullest," but I don't believe they're planning on dying anytime soon. Because why would someone live without having any insurance? Unexpected events can happen in life, but it's not certain that they will happen anytime soon. And since we don't know what the future holds, it's best to secure ourselves with insurance. It could be an accident, a loss, or any other unforeseen event. I've seen a case where someone had an accident, but when taken to the hospital, he had no family members or friends to reach out to. It was as if he was a ghost. How could he survive? But what saved him was his health insurance. He was treated very well, and his life was saved. By now, he should have paid off what he owed the insurance company for his surgery.

Personally, I haven't gotten insurance for my business yet, but I'm thinking about it. Right now, my main goal is to save up so I can kickstart another business in a completely different field from what I'm doing now. Gotta keep those options open as we never know.

there is different levels of insurance
as a minimum for running a business... liability
its the legal costs if you or your product causes harm or loss to an employee, customer or guest

then there is buildings/contents insurance. but these can be at different levels. whether its fully inclusive or only contains one or more of:
accidents, arson, no fault fire, flood, storm, lightning, damage, theft, etc

I might think about getting these kinds of insurance once my business hits a more stable stride and grows. At the moment, it's in the early stages, we're renting space, and our employee count is still modest. The future looks a bit uncertain. When it comes to insurance, I understand it's there to safeguard the business, but I've got to align it carefully with my budgeted expenses. Allocating funds for premiums is automatic, and I need to make sure it fits into the financial picture.

Real property insurance isn't on the table for me right now, like I said, I'm just taking it easy for the time being.
