My wife works in special risk insurance. I’m pretty sure Window Direct purchased a special risk insurance policy that pays out if the event occurs, so Window Direct isn’t out the money. It’s pretty much how hole-in-one charity tournaments work.

So, as always, we ALL pay (or at least all of that insurer's customers) so that some risk-taker doesn't have to suffer the consequence of taking a risk. Hmm.

(The insurers aren't exactly going to just take a loss.)

And the insurer privately thinking... “sucker... 15 straight... no way”
