Just saw a commercial where Billy Mays was selling health insurance! Would you buy health insurance from this man?

I would double check anything Billy Mays sells.

badboi · 09-17-2008, 12:03 AM

Only if he threw in some Sham Wows and some Kaboom if I ordered within the next 24 minutes.

Ummm, to answer your question, no. Don't think so.

He's the most annoying guy on TV. I wish he'd sell "Dr. Kvorkian's Do It Yourself Kit" and then gives a live demo!

Does it come with a free tube of the stuff that will stick ANYTHING together?

That would certainly factor in to my decision.

If that man whoever he is, says I should then that's a very good reason ... to never get insurance from him or whoever he endorses.

The guy that kicks the crap out of the Sham-Wow to get the pop out of the carpet that he JUST poured on there?

Great commercial.

The best part of that is, after he pours the soda on the carpet, its leaking through, then it cuts away and he says " we are gonna do this in real time" the carpet is suddenly not leaking lol. It has a hell of alot less soda on it. Oh and as he says " Its made in Germany, and you know the Germans always make good stuff".

any Bob & Tom radio listeners out there?

They have a sketch called "Billy Mazing" hilarious!

TheForce8686 · 09-17-2008, 03:10 AM

I dont know but maybe in couple years when I hit 30 I will start looking into that whole Health Insurance thing.

katharsis · 09-17-2008, 06:26 AM

Interesting jump from selling Oxi Clean to health insurance!

Hmm... wonder if some ingredients made someone ill and he is trying to make up for it now?!?

After you do in your spouse for the insurance money, you can use your Shamwow & Oxiclean to clean up the evidence so well not even the best CSI unit could find it!

scott87 · 09-17-2008, 10:58 AM

i would say no and and i dont even know who this man is

the beard puts me off trusting him

Ferris · 09-17-2008, 01:03 PM

He's an arse in person. He goes to the TV station my wife works at to film some of his informercials. But, he's loaded.... drives a new Porsche too.
