We can conclude that if you need to reinvest in Platinum insurance more than twice (that is if you do not lose your ship in more than 24 weeks), you will have lost money. It might be safer to invest in basic or standard insurance if you don't expect to take this Rupture into dangerous situations.

Once you progress in your [[Careers|Career]], you will probably own tens and then hundreds of ships. Insuring every one is probably not the best idea. For instance, ships that you intend to use in well-understood, controlled [[PvE]] contexts, which you know and have experienced before, might not need insurance. For some expensively-fit T2 or T3 ships, the insurance payout might be so desultory compared both to the financial loss when the ship blows up and, more cheerily, your income, that wasting time insuring them is a pointless hassle. Nevertheless, it will remain wise to take out Platinum insurance on cheap T1 ships which you are undocking for risky PvP.
