Betty White in the Cage with Peyton Manning
Betty White promotes Snickers, which I suspect she does for the money, and the same with Lifeline, which you describe as a leader in the life settlements and viatical industry. If you check the website for the Florida dept. of financial services you will see that this leader of the industry was run out of Florida for fraud and for violating the settlement agreement with the state in regard to the multiple incidents (and victims) of their fraud. Typical of the state of Georgia, they welcomed Page/Lifeline, probably due to the taxes they could collect from the company. Another example of how money trumps everything. Although not as old as Betty White, I am a senior. I know too much about this industry to sell my life insurance, no matter how great the need. And I never would endorse any company because there is no transparency. If a company, under close scrutiny, appears to be A+ at noon today, it could change ownership or how it operates and secretly become F at midnight. I doubt Betty White needs the enormous payments she gets from Lifeline. She does a disservice to other seniors by lending her reputation and her name to this promotion.— August 25, 2011 6:59 a.m.
