It varies by state. Car insurance is based on your ability to pay certain damages. In some states, you can take out a bond, showing that you are wealthy enough to pay for personal injury, property, and other types of damage.
Life insurance is not a requirement. It is a financial advisor relationship. If you can increase your wealth more than the financial advisor can, then why not try selling your life insurance policy?
You get money in your pockets. Invest the money you would have spent on premiums into stocks. Control your destiny.
