And this right here is the truth which is why I have zero sympathy. I'd bet if you went into any of those homes you'd find nice TV's, computers or laptops, video games and cell phones. Well, guess what - might want to re-think that cell phone and new PS3 and pay your fire Ins instead dumbass.

If you look at the odds, its probably smarter not to pay the fee and save the money.

Say you live in your house for 50 years... that's $3,750 over 50 years... seems pretty fucking stupid to me...

You don't have to pay the fee for them to save you, you have to pay them the fee for them to save your shit. Makes sense to me. Not saving you would be bad, not saving your stuff because you won't fork out the fee is fine.

Yep. Like I said earlier, if you don't pay insurance premiums and then file a claim, are you entitled to getting that claim paid? Of course not. Same concept.

They're there to keep people away and prevent injuries.

How can they know ahead of time if someody is in danger? Better to be there and watch vs not there and somebody burns up.
