A business method and computing system for providing a death benefit to a
participant having an uninsurable trait. The method collects registration
information from the participant, and associates the participant with at
least one other participant having the uninsurable trait to form a group
of participants. The method receives a funding payment from each
participant in the group to create a funding pool for a time period. The
method disburses the funding pool to deceased participants in the group
who died during the time period, each deceased participant receiving a
portion of the funding pool. An amount of the portion of the funding pool
for each deceased participant is the death benefit for the deceased
participant.
