Why rag on this woman ? Men will sit there and say that they love you but most do prefer young women unmarred by things like childbirth or age.She's being realistic.

Still, that marriage doesn't seem like it will last since the only thing the husband cares about how she looks...

In which case she'll at least have some money to pay for face/body work to get back into the dating game,beats being left with nothing but a broken heart an aging face and a body ruined by childbirth.

Not like women don't do this as well.

Both sound like tards to me.
 
But who decides if she?s gone ?ugly?. Couldn?t the insurance company just get an adjuster that thinks she hot, no matter what and not have to pay out.

People make insurance related purchases based on their assessment of their level of risk.I wish I'd been as smart as this woman!

Sounds more like a "get rich quick" scheme to me... I seriously doubt that the insurance company will pay out. There is probably a clause in there some place that they can wiggle out of paying anything.
 
My insurance is that I am establishing myself in a career. That way, if I get replaced by a younger model (something I can't rule out, unfortunately), it won't be as devastating.

Yeah but the $$$ from that career usually go into supporting kids.Money from the insurance could be used to help repair the damage that childbirth and age have wrought on your face and body,gives you more of a level playing field to restart your personal life from.

well first she migth as well collect the insurance...second her husband is a tool...shes a dumb b!tch...they go great together.

Man this somehow needs to be morphed into darwin awards story.
 
I am very skeptical about this story, despite the BBC having a fairly good reputation (after all, the NYTimes had that one reporter who faked a whole bunch of stuff - no journalistic house is infalible).

Why would an insurance company even participate in this? People age - you can't look like a twenty-something forever. This company must know they will have to pay out sooner or later.

I'm wondering if this is merely a publicity stunt.
