Most states will have a statute about self insurance. if you want to consider being self insured you would need to check with your state on the requirements and meet their guidelines. However the cost to do so may be very high. For example to meet fiancial responsible laws for personal auto they may require you to deposit $50,000 cash with the state or a letter of credit from your bank. In casualty line such as personal auto, general liability and other casualty lines it would be unadvisable.

For property insurance such as your house you can self insure provided no other entity or person has a financial interest. Again this is not a good ideal when you can transfer your risk to a insurer for a small amount of premium.
