A New Year 'Stop Smoking' Resolution Could Save You Money on Life Insurance

Top Quote The start of a new year is when many smokers resolve to quit their habit for health reasons. However, there are also financial gains for doing so. Not only will those who quit benefit from a substantial cut in expenditure from the cigarettes themselves, but once they have not smoked or used tobacco or nicotine products for 12 months. End Quote
  • (1888PressRelease) February 18, 2010 - A male aged 35 with a 25 year level term life insurance policy could reduce their monthly premium by 42%* by being eligible for non smoker rates, saving £78 a year.
