> Everyone is afraid of a catastrophic 1M$ one time event.

That was my thought, too, until I researched what a catastrophic event can cost and in the US it's a lot more than $1M!

What are the weighted chances of that happening though?

Do you also account for the chance that you might die everytime you take your car? Or that a meteor might hit you next time you take a walk?

At some point we need to be ok with some level of risks. That's just how the world is.
