Gamblers and Insurance Comps

Gamblers and Insurance Comps.
Popular Science Mo1thly.l
1t is an indubitable result Of the
theory of probabilities that every
gambler, if he continues long
enough, must ultimately be ruined.
Suppose he tries the martingale,
which some believe infallible, and
which is, as | am informed, disal-
lowed in the gambling houses. In
this method Of playing, he first bets
say 81; if he loses it, he bets So;
if be loses that, he bets $4; if he
loses that, he bets So; if lie then
gains he has lost l, 2, AZ, and he
has gained 81 more; and no matter
how many bets he loses, the fr:t
one he gains will make him 81 rich
er than he was in the beginning.
In this way he will probably gain at
first; but, at last the time will
come when the run Of luck is so
against him that he will not have
money enough to double, and must
therefore lei his bet 90. This will
probably happen before he has won
as much as he had in the first place,
so that this run against him will
leave him poorer than he began;
some time or other it will be sure
to happen. 1t is true that there is
always a possibility of his winning
any sum the bank can pay, and we
thus come upon a celebrated para.
dox that, though lie is certain to
be ruined, the value of his expecta-
tion calculated according to the
usual rules (which omit this consid-
eration) is large. But, whether a
gambler plays in this way or any
other, the same thing is true,
namely, that if he plays long
enough he will be sure some time
to have such a run against him as
to exhaust his entire fortune, The
same thing is true Of an insur-
ance company. Let the directors
take the utmost pains to be in
dependent of great conaagrations
and pestilences, their actuarits
can tell them that, according to
the doctrine of chances, the time
must come, at last, when their
losses will bring them to a stop,
They may tide over suoh crisis
by extraordinary means, but then
they will start again in weakened
state, and the same thing will hap.
pen again all the soonor. An ao-
tuary might be inclined to deny
this, because he knows that the ex-
peotation Of his company is large,
or perhaps (neglepting the interest
upon money! is infinite. But cal
culations Of expectations leave out
Of account the circumstance now
under consideration, which reverses
the whole thing. However, Imust
not be understood as saying that
insurance is ON this account un.
sound, more than other kinds Of
business. All human affairs rest
upon probabilities, and the same
thing Is true everywhere. If man
were immortal he could be perfectly |
