Bpaid a minimal cost compared to received benefit

Dwould have preferred added security over risk

Verified Answer :

Option C) would have preferred added risk over security.

An insurance policy protects against losses derived from certain risks. If there was not damage or loss and the policyholder feels comfortable with taking risks then the premium payments can be considered wasted.

But if the policyholder prefers the tranquility of being covered then the payments were not wasted.
