Do you trust your health to
an insurance company? Why trust your money to a mutual fund?!
Wouldn’t you prefer that
your assets be managed by people who are directly and solely compensated by
providing you profitable performance? Interest makes the difference!
Understandably, many people
are concerned that health insurance companies- like most physicians- subsidize
and support services that do not provide optimum benefit to the consumer. Why?
The health of the insurance company staff is not directly connected to the
health of the consumers- to the quality of service.
So why would they make
proactive prevention or health promotion a priority? Sure, that could save
money in the long run. However, many of the employees- and consumers- may
change insurance companies during the long run. Ultimately, the consumer is
responsible for the consumer.
But what if financial (or
health) benefits were somehow immediately experienced by those insurance
company employees? When there is a clear, immediate, mutual benefit, then
optimum benefit to the consumer would naturally result, don’t you expect?
Of course, there is no such
insurance plan, but there is such an investment plan. Why not invest into a
service designed for clear, immediate, mutual benefit- for optimum performance?
Isn’t that the responsible thing to do?
Many mutual funds
use the S & P 500 Index as a benchmark. After falling 46% in 2.5 years
along with other
Some “experts”
are even calling the last year a “new bull market.” While some fund managers
are hypnotized by as few as 30 stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (currently
down over 20% across the last 3.5 years), other managers quintupled
their positions in the last 3 years with 15 stocks: the Amex “Gold Bugs” Index
(“HUI”)! New bull or same old bull?
So let the insurance company
employees invest in mutual funds if they insist. As for me, while
“catastrophic” insurance may be favorable, I trust my health to life itself.
