Codename067 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Just wanted to share something that happened to me not long ago. There is this guy that's been offering me health insurance for sometime now. He works for Primerica and they got some decent rates. Either way, this fellow and I spoke back and forth for a few weeks, and every time he tries to push it more and more. One day we finally sat down to discuss the rates, and I told him that I'm a...smoker! [which means that you will almost pay double] The look on his face was priceless, like I just took a spoon full of sh*t and fed it to him He wasn't aware that I smoke, not sure why he made that assumption in the first place, but his reaction was hilarious. Anyone else get some funny/unexpected reactions from people that thought you never smoked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog_916 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I always just tell them that I am a smoker but in a different way. On the same level as pipe smokers. Usually they say that if you do it in moderation you should be okay or they ignore it. Moderation is the key word and one that not many people like.

Bulldog_916 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 It also hasnt affected my insurance any. I think the docs saved my ass on that one. Had they been the smoke nazi type, I have a feeling I would be paying a lot more out of pocket to cover myself even through my employer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny!

Call it denial! I lie to my doctor, I've never admitted to smoking and he can't tell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
