Why do you insure your house, and furniture, and
stable, against fire?
Because if you don't, and they burn up, the loss
will fall on you.
Why do you neglect to insure your life?
Because if you dieand you will die some day
the loss will not fall on you but on somebody else

or some other defenceless dependent.
You haven't viewed the question in this way?
