"Over 50's" Policies
 

Anyone else hate these adverts, basically it is saying you will die pretty soon so we cant be arsed putting you through any kind of medical as you are more than likely f*cked anyway, being senile you will probably want to leave £100 each to your grasping grandchildren who will spend it in one visit to Starbucks and not give it a second thought but as you still think that's a lot of money then thats great, in the meantime we will bum you for £50 a month for the rest of your miserable days and when you do cark it we will pay for a cardboard box and a ten minute slot at the local crematorium.

And to seal the deal because we are so generous we will provide you with either one of those new fangled DVD players to drag your sorry arse into the nineties ( a film on a shiny record, who would have thought it) or a olden style record player that looks like its from the thirties (despite the bright green LCD display) and you can play your ****ty old Vera Lynn records you sad old buffer, we even throw in a pen as you, being senile will have forgotten here you put yours, so stick your bifocals on and get filling the form in, if you cant get your children to fill it out if they can bear to see any of your cash not going straight to them.

All presented by a lovable old grandad type chap, still active but with a hint of frailty and pain when he stands up on his allotment just to remind you how decrepit you really are getting, I SAID DECREPIT LOVE or a still active but greying woman still shopping but it cant be long, possibly even Parky reminding you of your imminent demise, tempting you with that clock radio, eight quids worth of the latest 70s technology to wake you up, eh, you get up at five anyway despite the fact you have no reason to other than an unruly bladder.

I must be getting touchy now I am 40 :D

And breath... (hopefully not your last breathe..)

I still breathe when I type !

And I thought I was a grumpy old man, a few weeks short of my 50th ... :Suspiciou :thumb:

Equity release is where its at for old people these days. Get as much equity as you can out of the house, spend it on hookers and viagra and leave the leeches with the bill. :thumb:

sound like a plan. i dont have any leeches thank fook

Agree it's dreadful. Real bargain basement life-cover preying on peoples fears with glib sales techniques.

In general I think the whole 'over 50's' thing is pretty depressing. There was adverts in Oz for 'over 50's lifestyle villages'. If you're over 50 you can go and live in a compound with tennis courts, golf etc and cheap villas. Talk about being put out to grass! Like Butlins but greyer and you live there. Cue footage of people in cardigans and slacks. It's giving up on life LOL.

Comes to us all J4CKO!

Hows the Clock Radio then Les :D

get more and more of this stuff coming through the post weekly and i am 53 on wednesday this week probably will get worse....just had a home insurance quote from some company specialising in over 50's and came out over 100 pound more for the same cover as the aa have offered.....dont live in too bad an area either .....but the over 50's insurance company were supposed to beat all the rest....ha haha lol

It is a policy designed for people who can't get normal cover because of ill health. You generally have to hang on for two years from inception to get a payout though, and it costs a fortune. A healthy 65yo will get cheap cover through a conventional policy

Ticking!

Les ;)

I have 23 years until I'm 50!



:D

Can I interest you in over thirties life cover then, not long now....

No thank you :D
