Insurance: A Necessary Evil?
With the economy being what it is today, many people are concerned with the expense of life insurance. Is it necessary to have health insurance? Those seem appropriate questions to ask especially for young people. After all, if you’re only in your 20s, you aren’t always thinking about the future and the implications from not having insurance.
When you’re young, it seems that you view the cost of life insurance and health insurance as “rip offs,” a way for insurance companies to take your money and give you nothing in return. It’s only when you begin to approach middle age or have children that the reality sets in. You need life insurance to take care of your family when you die, and you need health insurance to take care of them while you are still around. That doesn’t mean that you don’t have a choice in how much you pay in premiums.
