Gene, my dad has always had that philosophy, and somehow he was able to discipline himself through life to see the fruits. "Save, save, save and never trust an insurance company" has been what he's preached, and it's worked for him. He now has more money than he knows what to do with. Well, he does know, it's called invest wisely. He has only had a cheap little life insurance policy that's just enough to bury him very cheaply. Visitation will be in his home and I'm going to be the one to dig the hole for his ashes. He didn't even have health insurance until my mom died of cancer in '71. He had enough saved to pay the medical bills, but it got him to thinking a little bit, so he bought a cheap little health policy. Instead of buying hail insurance for the crops he invests the money he would have paid for the premium. He's 85 and probably can live his life out on just that investment. It's too bad his ways never rubbed off on his son! Jim
