Remember that old adage to the effect that those who don't learn lessons from history are bound suffer avoidable hardship?Learning the important lessons that history of investment offers, will rev up your investing profits. . .1. Put all your eggs in one basket and watch that basket.

It can also be defined as the transfer of insurance business from one insurer to a

This age is called retiring age and the process is called retirement. The conventional age to retire in most offices is 65 but in many cases it may extend up to the wish of the employee or the employer.

Fire insurance is basically a device to compensate for the loss caused due to fire. It is a co-operative device to share the loss among the members of the society. The insurer in this
