"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
-Benjamin Franklin

This was actually fire-fighting advice!* Fires were very dangerous threat to Philadelphians, so Franklin set about trying to remedy the situation. In 1736, he organized Philadelphia's Union Fire Company, the first in the city. Those who suffered fire damage to their homes often suffered irreversible economic loss. So, in 1752, Franklin helped to found the Philadelphia Contributionship for the Insurance of Houses from Loss by Fire. Those with insurance policies were not wiped out financially. The Contributionship is still in business today and is the oldest property insurance company in the country.
