Actually, how about we just pool our money together and put it in an index fund? Like, no death. Then we, presumably living, would all make money.

Say you get 4 people to make the bet....the last one to die will probably be like 90 at least.
IMHO Its useless to have 200K at that age (unless you needed it for health reasons)
