B. Compare to the risk of natural disasters, AIR Worldwide earlier estimated insured losses in the Katrina-hit states in a range of $17 billion to $25 billion. These figures cover wind and rain damage and some flooding, AIR Worldwide said.

Berkshire Hathaway has been taking insurance policies that noone else would for years. Primary owner of Berkshire Hathaway Warren Buffet he could put $100M on his credit card as it is less than 1% of his net worth...

Insurance companies can come up with $100M and the other poster is right, most of those "$1 million dollar shots/passes" are covered by a one time fee of $20K or something like that.

Kramer : Do you?
Jerry : No. I don't.
Kramer : But they do and they are the ones writing it off.
Jerry : I wish I just had the last twenty seconds of my life back.
