You pay up front for nothing tangible at all, and if all goes well (i.e., nothing happens to trigger a claim) then at the end of the period for which youve bought coverage youve got nothing in return and indeed have lost your premium for good. Unlike credit, savings, remittances or other payment or transfer facilities, the value of an insurance policy is not immediate or clearly measurable.
