Oun.ML1IC consideration the average length of life of each mem- ber of the family, together with the cost of bringing children into the world, feed- ing them, clothing them, ed- ucating them and bringing them up to a self-supporting basis. Long lives and short lives — small incomes and big incomes—are reckoned in these calculations. At 40, a man earning $100 a week is rated as having an eco- nomic value of $45,670. At 30, the $50-a-week manrep- resents a value of $31,000. He had a value of $9,333 the day he was born. * —And then come the fig- ures showing the total eco- nomic value of all the men, women and children of the United States—theastound- ing total of 1,500 billion dol- lars ($l 500,000,000,000). * 1f youwish tofind out how much each mem- ber of your famlly is worth, economically, send for a booklet recently prepared by the Metropolitan LifeInsurance Company— It tells how a person of any age may measure the economic value of his or her life. It will bemalled free. more valuable to himself than the things he owns. Now he can have the comfort of knowing how valuable his life i3 to others—from a dollars-and-cents standpoint. 4 LMOST any man will agree that his life is Today it is known that the lives of our men, women and children are the nation’s greatest asset. The economic value of these lives completely over- shadows the value of all of our material wealth. Recent computations made by statisticians of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company show the real economic value of the lives of our people from baby- hood to old age. These figures are based on the aver- age family —with an average income—and take into HALEY FISKE, President Jjust paid the rent, the grocery bill and the milk bill. He says he is “broke, but happy”.... In reality, he and his family are worth a small fortune.... This American family represents $79,100 of the nation’s wealth. Perhaps the easiest way to realize this stupendous figure is to compare it with the total value of the entire material wealth of our country. The latest available government reports show that everything we own—Iland, buildings, railroads, mines, Fiscal Report to Policyholders for Year Ending December 31, 1926 + « « $2,108,004,385.30 $1,862,873,176.00 $52,246,369.35 $70,648,717.81 $122,236,122.14 $2,108,004,385.30 Increase in Assets during 1926 . . $253,346,902.88 Incomein1926 . . . . . . . $595,596,505.88 Gainin Income, 1926 . . : . . $64,368,062.09 Paid-for Life Insurance Issued, Increased and Revived in 1926 . $3,011,775,150.00 Gain in Insurance in Force in 1926 $1,401,734,835.00 Total Bonuses and Dividends to Policyholders from 1892 to and including 1927 . . . . e Assets .

Our lives are worth nearly five times as much as our property. America can well be proud of the additional insur- ance placed on the valuable lives of her people in 1926. More than 16 billion dollars ($16,000,000,000) w..s written and revived during the year by about 300 life insurance companies—making the total amount of life insurance in force approximately 80 billion dol- lars ($80,000,000,000). About one sixthof thegrand total is carried by the Metropolitan. But while the people of this country carry 80 billion dollars of life insurance—or only one-twentieth of the economic valueof their lives —~they carry more than 160 billionsofinsurance onprop- erty-more than one-half of its value. You would not insure a $5,000 house for $250—one twentieth of its value. You insure it adequately. But have you insured yourself adequately? Send for the booklet which tells you what you are worth. Study it. Then decide whether or not you carry enough insurance to protect your family. Americaisrapidly gaining a better knowledge of the value of its greatest wealth —human lives. The America of the fu- ture will better safeguard its “xyM3% wealth and happiness. > FREDERICK H. ECKER, Vice-President The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is a mutual omtmisnrlou.
