This topic is copied from a diffent board here in FT. I moved it here 'cause no one answered it over there & I was hoping somone might have an answer. Anyone . . . ?

Question for anyone that can answer it:

For those out there with significant experience in strength/weight training and/or body-building, with a heavy frame, you're going to wind up with a relatively high BMI.

For those with a high BMI that really aren't "obese," but are classified as such by a high BMI score, where do you get life and/or health insurance without paying out the wazoo? My employer doesn't offer anything so I'm having to do it solo. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look?

My BMI is extremely high, like morbidly obese! None of this, however, ever played a factor in my health insurance - no questionare or anything; I just pay for it every month. What companies have you looked into?

Hmm, I'd have to look where I put the stuff. It wasn't so much health as getting a life policy.
