M L I Co. 9.11 ages A LMOST any man will agree that his life Is more valuable to himself than the things he jL A. owns. Now he can have the comfort of knowing how valuable his life Is to others from a dollars-and-cents standpoint. 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 CJompany 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 consideration the average length of life of each mem ber of the family, together with the cost of bringing ch ildren 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 man rep 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 the astound ing total of 1,500 billion dol lurs ($1,500,000,000,000).

He has just paid the rent, the grocery bill and the milk bill He say a he a "broke, but happy". . . . Jn 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 land, buildings, railroads, mines raw materials, manufactured products, crops, live stock everything included was 321 billions. . . .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) was 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 the grand 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 value of their lives -they carry more than 160 billionsof insurance onprop-erty-more than one-half of its value.
