Why is insurance considered an expense and not an asset.I thought you can sell it off?

Insurance is an expense because you know how much you will be spending on it every month. The value of the insurance will never flunctuate unlike properties or investments.

cos u're payin off ur premiums every mth...
if nth happens... u won't get back the premiums u paid.. its not like life insurance n endownment... where u get back a sum upon maturity.
so these insurance ur company pays is an expense.
