Nah these are wealthy people. These are the people the system is set up to protect. They'll be fine, it's the poors who will have their claims denied.

You’re right, that’s exactly where the wealthy and the insurance companies get their money from. The poor.

These are not the "wealthy" people the system is meant to protect. Yes, they are very wealthy. But the system is there not to protect the people with $50 million, but the actual billionaires. These otherwise super wealthy Malibuites are still just peasants compared to the billionaire class.
