re: #56 Bubblehead II

And as a smoker I’m perfectly fine with that. Smoking does have health risks and health insurance should charge those who engage in unhealthy habits more. That being said, do they also charge those engaged in other risky behaviors more? You know like sky diving, Base Jumping, ect. Because I’ve never seen that question being asked when I fill out my yearly (company provided) Insurance form.

I have seen it in life insurance applications, but as I live in Canada not health insurance ones. I am not sure sky diving and base jumping are terribly relevant to health insurance as opposed to life insurance as accidents in those risky activities most often result in very little health care costs. Mostly just funeral costs and life insurance.
