Life Assurance for a very fit 58 y.o.?

Options
Hi,

Are there insurance companies that take into account someone's' fitness and genetics? My Dad is 95 and gardens for up to 3 hours a day, I cycle a fast 100 miles per week commuting to work.

Thx.

    Martin's got an article on insurance for the over 65s so I'd start there for Dad.

    For you, I'd work through the general article on insurance

    Sorry I realise the articles I linked to are for travel insurance. There are articles about life insurance: the first question would always be for me 'do you need it?' We had to have a medical assessment when we took out insurance to pay off our mortgage, which included a bit of family history I think.
