Yup. Given all insurance is there to make a profit, on average you'll
come out better. Obviously for things like house insurance it is not
so clear.


It's still true on house insurance. The only thing is that many of us
can stand the risk on a boiler, and few of us can stand the risk on our
houses.


I'd be happy with house insurance that only covered fire and flood, etc.
Not theft or accidental damage or anything else they seem to throw in to
make it look like you're getting good value.


I'd be happy with TPO car insurance but it's either not offered or /increases/ the premium over comprehensive.
Mind you IME car insurance is very scammy.
