who says assets have to be transferrable. Is life insurance not an asset, even though, obviously, it's not transferrable?

Life insurance is transferable. Frequently lost in divorce settlements. Think of it as a Life-Default Swap.

Life insurance can be collected upon. How does one cash in a degree?

You can't directly, but a lot of people hope to get a reasonable rate of return on their degree, career-wise.
