This paper deals with life-saving decisions. The decision maker can buy a number of death-averting devices or services which increase his safety S at the expense of the discounted future consumption R. The safety and consumption depend parametrically on the death probability p and the probability reducing strategy x, i.e. S(p/x); R(p/x). The two-factors utility function U(S, R) is used to find the optimum strategy x = [...]. which maximizes U(x). One can show that the unique strategy [...] exists and can be effectively derived. Many applications of proposed methodology are indicated.
