Insurance
Why do you need insurance? Because the unexpected sometimes happens. If you're burgled, insurance can pay for you to replace the things that were taken. If you need medical treatment, it can pay for private healthcare, and replace some of your income if you can't work. If you die, insurance can pay a lump sum to the family you leave behind. The insurance company agrees to pay out if the event which you're insuring against happens.
Cost
You pay a monthly premium throughout the term of the policy. Cost depends mainly on:
- Your age – at the time you start the policy. Older people are more likely to suffer an illness, so pay more.
- Your sex – gender can have an affect on the premium you pay.
- Your health – at the time you start the policy. If you have existing health problems you might be refused cover or have to pay more.
- Your job – some jobs are more likely than others to contribute towards illness. For example, a bank clerk is deemed to have a very safe job but a deep sea diver runs high risks and so would have to pay more
- Hobbies and lifestyle – for example, smoking makes you more likely to become ill, so you'll pay more.
