This document defines insurance and describes five common types of insurance. Insurance is a contract between two parties where one agrees to take on the risk of an uncertain event happening to the other in exchange for regular payments. The party taking on the risk is the insurer and the party being insured is the insured. The document then explains automobile insurance, health insurance, life insurance, disability insurance, and homeowners/renters insurance. Automobile insurance protects against risks from car accidents, health insurance covers medical costs, life insurance provides money to beneficiaries when the insured passes away, disability insurance replaces lost income from inability to work, and homeowners/renters insurance protects the home and contents from damage.
