The act of getting fucked by an insurance company who declines to pay an injured victim for the sake of its profit margin.
Ed was injured in an accident when he was T-boned by Frank who ran a red light at the intersection. Ed was then insured by Mercury Insurance (Frank's insurance) who offered him $250 to get lost.

A business that involves selling people promises to pay later that are never fulfilled.
Gomer paid flood insurance premium for years, but then the insurer decided to go out of business when the flood came because management had spent all the premium on hookers and private jets.

Particularly auto insurance.
One of the biggest rackets to exist, insurance allegedly offers money to cover for accidents.
The way this works is that they take a monthly premium. Many people pay this premium, it collects into a big pool, and anyone who has an accident gets a share of this money to fix his car. Sounds simple right?
What actually happens is one pays the insurance monthly for years without having an accident. When one does get into an accident, their insurance premium goes up (almost doubles in some cases). People argue that this is to cover the cost of damage.
What then, about the previous years of insurance one paid? What was the point of all the accident free driving if the company increases the client's monthly premium to cover the accident?
As one can tell, insurance has evolved from what was supposed to be a welfare concept to one of the biggest scams, preventing young drivers and students who are just starting to drive on a tight budget from ever driving again, using public transport for ever.

Insurance is a big international industry employing thousands of people. It has a turnover of billions of dollars.
The Insurance Industry started at Edward Lloyd's coffee house in London in the late 1680s. Edward Lloyd's was a popular meeting spot for master mariners, merchants and ship owners. All the news about the departures of ships, their estimated time of arrival at the port to which they were sailing ,and the cargoes being carried was discussed over coffee and something to eat. Lloyds rapidly became the place where ships and their cargoes were insured against loss at sea. Today Lloyds of London is still the leading marine and specialist insurance market in the world.

A female friend you put on 'back-burner' when you are dating someone or getting close to, so if that the relationship ends, you still have her to go to.
That bitch girl dumped me, but her best friend was my insurance, so I won in the end.
