I won't try because I did something similar. If it happens I can guarantee that the insurance companies won't be solvent.

Instead we are focused on investing our money as a form of self-insurance.

It's kind of like life insurance; term makes sense but whole life doesn't (vs investing the premiums).

As far as polymarket: I can't say there. I've never used it (though I know what it is).

But in term, you lose everything that you ever pay. Even If you consider the loss of interest in whole life, would the difference be huge?
