Summary
In The Transfer of Risk, Timothy Cobb, real estate professional, entrepreneur, Navy veteran, and author, takes an unfiltered look at insurance and the basic idea behind it: transferring risk from one party to another.Drawing from his experience in life and health insurance, life settlements, real estate, finance, and sales, Cobb explains insurance in straightforward language without getting buried in industry jargon. He explores how different types of insurance work, why policies are structured the way they are, and what happens when people do not fully understand the coverage they have.The book covers:Life insurance and life settlementsHealth insurance and its moving partsAnnuities and the risk of outliving your moneyLiability insurance and the risks businesses and individuals faceUnderwriting, probability, and how insurance companies evaluate riskThe costs, limitations, and trade-offs found within insurance policiesThis is not a book telling you what insurance to buy. It is an educational look at an industry that affects nearly everyone and an explanation of the concepts behind the policies, premiums, claims, and contracts people encounter throughout their lives.Insurance is about risk.The risk of dying too soon. The risk of becoming seriously ill. The risk of outliving your money. The risk of being responsible for someone else's losses.The Transfer of Risk takes a straightforward look at those risks and the industry built around transferring them.Insurance can be complicated. Understanding the basics does not have to be.©2026 Timothy Cobb (P)2026 Timothy Cobb
