get insurance

[/ QUOTE ]

getting insurance is a -EV gamble...so I wouldn't call it a "no brainer" like others say

but it does reduce variance [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Nobody claimed it was +EV. I can't think of any reason why you would go against the "no brainer" sentiment.

Because it's -EV and some people can handle the variance?

I'd never buy renter's insurance for instance. Clearly not a no brainer.
