So my health insurance has a little incentive program where you show up and get your heart rate checked, weight, cholsterol and a few other tests, give you $50 just to show up, if you pass the tests to their standards (which I think I should) you get another $50....so $100 probably to be spent on cigars....paid by the insurance company....ironic? :r

I recently got a $25 gift card from our employee recognition thing that I used to buy a blood pressure machine.

We have a set up like this at my work - but they put it into your HSA so it is restricted to being spent on health care related items. Not nearly as fun!

Realy irony is when you're on welfare and have 2 kids... then use welfare money for fertility treatment to get 8 more kids and because you now have 10 kids you can't work therefor you need welfare.

Oh wait, that's a true story. :D
