Good people of Paris,
Recent events have seen me incur great expenditure upon my personal finances, I am afraid to say to the state where I feel the need to seek a small degree of charity from you.
As doctor I can reciprocate towards those of you who are able to assist by guaranteeing my future services for free come your time of need. A modest gift of, say, 20 livres each to support me and save you from searching around for some higher charging physician.
Please contact me to pledge your donation and I will issue you with my guarantee

Dr Spaghetti,
An interesting proposition, to pre-hire a Physician. Yet a number of issues come to mind. What happens if you die in one of your duels? How long does 20 livres cover last, and how much treatment?
As a gentleman I do feel for you, ones funds are never quite enough to cover ones expectations. One sees a fine silk handkercheif from China and one must have it, no?
As a Physician to the Ladies Slipper, I do worry at the ... effects of an association with you will have on my social postion. On the other hand, having a man of some experience as a duelist and doctor might be even more useful should I find myself challenged to a duel!
Duelling is such a nasty thing.. all that blood... and sometimes it's even my blood!
In short, therefore, I will be sending Jacob, my man-servant and coach-driver to find you. He will bring 20 livres, and the address of my house, and I hope to recieve a guarantee in return.

Pvt d'Blancheur,
I can see that you are a man of promise, surely destined for greater things especially now that you have made the sound choice of investing in your future health.
Rest assured that I have no intentions of dying in any duel and I can confirm that your 20 livres donation will cover you for life, yes life no further costs and my personal guarantee that any medical needs will be met, what a bargain eh and let us hope that other gentlemen follow your common sense approach.
Once your man-servant reaches me with the donation that guarantee will be issued.
Good doing business with you sir.
Best regards,
Dr Spaghetti

To: The good folk of Paris,
While there has been encouraging response to my generous offer of lifetime medical cover one feels there is the scope for more take-up and so to those who may have been hesitant over concern to their donation being 'wasted' in the untimely occurrence of my demise may I reassure you all by saying my personal will shall be adjusted so that Those who choose to donate will have their donation repaid upon that event.
