Annuities and life insurance is how an individual gains access to the risk pool you are describing.

Or pension plans. Which essentially combine an Annuity with a Retirement Fund.

Life Insurance is weirder. Its more about leaving money left over for your family, especially if you die earlier than expected and your family will need a source of money to sustain themselves after losing you.
