Insurance protects against losses you cannot comfortably absorb.

Why it matters

One major event can undo years of financial progress.

Where to start

Focus on the risks that would cause the biggest disruption.

Core concept

Protection preserves everything else.

Insurance is not about collecting policies. It is about preventing a single event from damaging your income, savings, or long-term stability.

The right structure protects the rest of your financial system.

Key insight

You insure what you cannot afford to lose.

Everything else is secondary.
