I was flipping through a recent issue of Real Simple, when I ran across a short article a Q & A, really. The column is called Right on the Money, and it focuses on ethics when it comes to your money. The question a reader asked was, When filling out an insurance application, can I stretch the truth about my health? The article explained in around 200 words why this is not a good idea that it could lead to a future claim being denied.

When I thought about this, I realized that all that space was really unnecessary. Stretch the truth is a euphemism for lie. Lie. So, really, the question should have been changed to say, When filling out an insurance application, can I lie about my health? When stated this way, the answer needs just one word, No.
