These companies exist, they sell a product called life insurance...

Yes, I was referring to that. I'm just not aware of such companies doing large-scale funding of life extension research to increase profits. I suspect it could be done, just that you might need to aggregate a lot of insurance companies to make it profitable.
Ah, but the other half of life insurance companies frequently sell annuities, which are bets you'll die soon enough. :)
