insurance: If Life Were A Video Game
- 03/13/09 02:41 AM
I heard my son saying "No! No! No! from the other room. It wasn't loud and emphatic; There was more sadness and disappointment in the tone of his voice. I went to see what was going on. He was sitting in front of the t.v. head down; body slumped forward. "What's wrong" I asked. "Is it bad" I querried before he had a chance to answer. "Yes" he said. "I got arrested."

To help determine if a Risk is Insurable use this mnemonic: CANHAM Calculable - Someone must be able to Calculate the risk involved … (7 comments)
