Never understood life insurance…you pay, say, $1000 a year for a $250,000 policy…wouldn’t you have to live like 250 years for the company to break even?
Your relatives only get paid under certain circumstances. Most people will never die in a position that their life insurance companies would have to pay up. So they can turn out much more to those that actually do get in such a position.
Your probability of dying *this* year is around 1 in 250. So for this year, the policy and premium make sense. As you get older and your probability of death goes higher, your premium will go to a higher rate.
There are various complications, including group policies, the fact that the insurance company can invest the premium, and as Philip alluded to, policy limitations. However, these don’t change the basic way insurance works.
