In a recent article in the Guardian they have outlined what job titles are the best, and worst for car insurance costs.
It would appear that people who are airline pilots, get dirt cheap car insurance. Presumably because they are seen as the type of people who will not make a mistake! Is this true though? If you were an airline pilot stuck on a 10 hour flight, wouldn't you want to get out upon landing and go hairing up the runway in an Aston martin, kicking the back out in clouds of tyre smoke!? I would! Surely there would be then a risk of a crash, particularly at one of the busiest of airports. A crash between a 747 and an Aston is not going to be cheap!
The most expensive people car insurance title goes to people who are DJ's. Presumably because they might be drunk, deaf and travel at night the majority of the time. They can be fleeced out of as much as £,6000 per year in insurance. Seems a bit excessive doesn't it!?
This opens up the question - do people lie about their job titles on their car insurance? Are these things actually checked, as to whether people are lying or not? They certainly should be. Ive also wondered what people put as their job title if for instance they fight lions, or do metal detecting for a living. There has to be some kind of "other" section so people can enter such titles as "electric donkey worker" or "bat hair specialist" ?
So in summary - learn to fly a plane, and you will not only get the best office view in the word, and get paid big money, but you will also be paying pennies on insurance! This is another top tip from me!
