Those under the Ghost Cartel's financial influence frequently find themselves in precarious situations where prolonged life expectancies can sometimes be minimalized. Will we be able to take out life insurance policies on our hired help?asked by Green Eyed Devil

So, life insurance for hired help. I mean, not so much. I think if we're talking about NPCs that you would hire, that's the risk they're taking. They go work out in the big, bold universe and bite the bullet, then they're dead. You'd better hire another one. And then obviously, if it's another player coming to help you out that you've hired, then again, that's the risk they would take. So I don't think you would purchase life insurance for your hired help, and I would suspect that that would be ripe for exploiting. Like, 'Oh, why don't I hire you as a life insurance party, and I'll cash you in after me and my friends have bumped you off in the outer reaches of space.' So no, there won't be life insurance.
