Wait, does this mean I can gamble on my own health now? That's the kind of speculative risk I can get behind!

This is a tricky one, but I think C is the right answer. An example of speculative risk is the possibility of contracting a serious illness, which involves both the potential for loss and the potential for gain (e.g., through medical treatment).

I'm going with B. Only pure risk involves the possibility of gain. Speculative risk is the possibility of both gain and loss, not just gain.

D seems like the correct answer to me. Speculative risk contains an element of uncertainty, unlike pure risk which is a guarantee of loss.

I think the correct answer is A. Healthcare coverage is designed to help plan members avoid pure risk, not speculative risk. Pure risk is the possibility of loss or damage, while speculative risk involves the possibility of both gain and loss.
