Insurance is negative NPV. Trying to make it NPV neutral by giving people tools to self-insure. Starting with an app that lets you self-insure your phone with friends and family.

It’s real, my friends and I all pay premiums every month, we’ve put aside $1100 so far. Work on it nights and weekends with one of my fellow policy holders. Feedback would be super appreciated.
