The Insurance Policy

"The Insurance Policy"*

*Rex's barn burned down and his wife, Susan, called
the insurance company.

Susan told the insurance company, "We had that
barn insured for fifty-thousand and I want my money."

The agent replied, "Whoa there, just a minute,
Susan. Insurance doesn't work quite like that. We
will ascertain the value of what was insured and
provide you with a new one of comparable worth."

There was a long pause before Susan replied,
"Then I'd like to cancel the policy on my husband."

"GI Insurance"*

*Airman Jones was assigned to the induction center,
where he advised new recruits about their
government benefits, especially their GI Insurance.
It wasn't long before Captain Smith noticed that
Airman Jones had almost a 100% record for insurance
sales, which had never happened before.

Rather than ask about this, the Captain stood in the
back of the room and listened to Jones' sales pitch.

Jones explained the basics of the GI Insurance to the
new recruits, and then said: "If you have GI Insurance
and go into battle and are killed, the government has
to pay $200,000 to your beneficiaries. If you don't have
GI Insurance, and you go into battle and get killed, the
government only has to pay a maximum of $6000."

"Now", he concluded, "which bunch do you think they
are going to send into battle first?"
