How Does Marijuana Use Affect Your Life Insurance Rates?

Do you know who your life insurance beneficiaries are?

By McKenzy Bowers | July 14, 2015

Even if you occasionally smoke marijuana, you may still be able to get life insurance at rates that won’t bum you out. To find out more, read on.

If you’re a regular reader of this blog…and if you’re not, you should be!…then you know I’ve written about marijuana use and how it affects life insurance before.

Well, as more states make recreational use legal, the way life insurance carriers view the drug is becoming increasingly important and relevant.  Media is covering this as well, as evidenced here.  AccuQuote was quoted in this article, which is informative and helpful.

Specifically, the story emphasizes how some carriers classify marijuana users as non-smokers.  That means you might not face a smoker penalty if you smoke pot.

Bloomberg reporter Selina Wang also emphasizes that you need to shop around to make sure you’re getting the best rate.

Hmmmmm. Shopping different life insurance companies so you get the best rate?  That’s an interesting concept.
