Long-time readers know I’m a big fan of the insurance industry because of one quirk in their business model. Customers always pay premiums upfront, sometimes years before they ever file a claim.

If you had invested $1,000 back in 1988, your position would have grown to over $180,000 today. Yet I’d bet 99 out of 100 people have never heard of this company.
