INSURANCE JOKES

Ian’s barn burned down and his wife, Nicola Moorby, called the
insurance company. Nicky told the insurance company, "We had that barn insured for £100,000 and I want my money."
The agent replied, "Wait there, just a minute, Nicky. Insurance doesn't work quite like that. We will ascertain the
value of what was insured and provide you with a new one of comparable worth." There was a long pause before Nicky replied,
"Then I'd like to cancel the life insurance policy on my husband Ian."

Private Jones was assigned to the army induction centre, where he was responsible
for advising new recruits to the British army about their government benefits, including their life insurance policies.
It wasn’t long before Captain Jon Blackwell noticed that Private Jones was having a very high
success rate, selling army life insurance to nearly 100% of the army recruits he advised.
Rather than ask about this,
the Captain Jon Blackwell stood in the back of the room and listened to Private Jones life insurance sales pitch. Jones explained
the basics of the life insurance policy to the new army recruits, and then said: “If you have the life insurance policy
and go into battle and are killed, the government has to pay £150,000 to your beneficiaries. If you don’t have
the life insurance, and you go into battle in Afghanistan for example and get killed, the government only has to pay a maximum
of £7,000. Now,” he concluded, “which group of soldiers do you think they are going to send into battle
first?”

A drunk wanders into a bar and yells, " I think all insurance agents
are crooks". A man quickly rushes up to the drunk and shouts "You take that back." The drunk replies, "Why
are you an insurance agent?", the man, in a rage, shouts back, "No, I'm a crook".

A Life insurance Actuary, a Lawyer and an Accountant were discussing the
merits of having a mistress or a wife. The lawyer reckons it was better having a mistress, because the wife can take everything
if you should come to a divorce. The accountant reckons it was definitely better having a wife, from a taxation perspective.
The life insurance actuary reckons it was better having both, because when you are not with the wife, she thinks you are with
the mistress, and when you are not with the mistress, the mistress thinks you are with the wife, and that way, you can spend
more time at the office.

Malcolm walks into an insurance office and asks for a job. "We don't
need anyone," the boss replied."You can't
afford not to hire me. I can sell anyone, anytime, anything.""Well
we have two prospects that no one has been able to sell. If you can sell just one, you have a job." Malcolm was gone
about two hours, and returned and handed them two checks - one for £20,000.00 and another for £40,000.00."How in the world did you do that?" the boss asked."I told you I'm the worlds best salesman. I can sell anyone, anywhere, anytime!""Did you get a urine sample?" the boss asked him."What's that?" he asked."Well, if you sell a policy over £20,000.00 the company requires a urine sample. Take these
two bottles and go back and get urine samples."Malcolm
was gone about six hours and they were preparing to close when in he walks in with two gallon buckets, one in each hand. He
sets the buckets down, and reaches in his shirt pocket and produces two bottles of urine, and sets them on the desk and says,
"Here's Mr. Jones and this one is Mrs. Merediths""That's
good," the boss said, "but what's in those two buckets?""Well, I passed by the InterContinental Hotel and they were having a County Money State Teacher's
Convention, so I stopped and sold them a group policy!"

Do you know the present value of your husband's policy?" the life
insurance salesman asked his client."What do you
mean?" asked the woman. "If you should lose your husband, what would you get?" asked the life insurance salesman.

A travel insurance agent was walking along the beach when he found a bottle. When
he rubbed it, there was a puff of smoke and a genie appeared.
"I will grant you three wishes," announced
the genie. "But I must warn you: since Satan hates me for my good deeds, for every wish you make, your rival will get
the wish as well only double."
The travel insurance salesman thought about this for a while. "For
my first wish, I would like ten million pounds," he announced. Instantly, the genie gave him a Swiss bank account number
and assured the man that £10,000,000 had been deposited. "But your rival has just received £20,000,000,"
the genie said.
"I''ve always wanted a Ferrari," the salesman said. Instantly a Ferrari appeared.
"But your rival has just received two Ferraris," the genie said. "And what is your last wish?"
"Well," said the salesman, "I''ve always wanted to donate a kidney."
