Additional Information
In the most basic sense, insurance is a way to help you pay the bills when something goes wrong. Crash your car? Your auto insurance will help pay for the repairs. Come down with a serious illness? Your health insurance will make those hospital bills manageable.
To get a little more specific, insurance is a way of managing risk. It works like this: you pay a certain amount of money, called a premium, to be covered by an insurance policy. If you have a loss that’s covered by your policy, you’ll receive compensation from your insurance company. In theory, the cost of your premiums is less than the amount of your loss.
In one sense, paying for insurance is like gambling. For that reason, people in some culture refuse to buy insurance. People in these cultures rely on their neighbors for support when they have a loss.
The history of insurance goes back several thousand years. Throughout history, merchants and traders created systems to share risk and protect their goods from loss. In more recent history, farmers would pool their resources to prevent the loss of crops from fire or storms from ruining them financially. These “fire protection funds” eventually grew into many of the leading American insurance companies.
These days, most insurance plans are sold through large companies. And because there are so many companies selling insurance, there is a lot of competition over price and coverage. If you’re in the market for a new insurance policy, compare your options with locally-licensed agents before you buy.
