      is that a meme or did you accidentally butcher the term “ponzi scheme” which is something entirely different? not saying insurances aren’t often a scam. just a different kind.

            I guess I see enough parallels to call it “close enough”, but I guess that’s a matter of perspective.

              It’s not a matter of perspective. You used the wrong term. No big deal, we’ve all done it, and now you know.
