Insurance.
Insurance- paying for something you might never need but required to be available JUST IN CASE. eyeroll
Then you're denied it regardless.
I learned today, that if insurance companies come to the conclusion that your death was a suicide, then they don't even have to pay out your life insurance to your family. Pretty messed up.
correction, you do an ungodly amount of paperwork prior to getting denied.
And if you die you lose everything you paid for and your family gets none. Sounds great!
