Other versions of commercial jingles

Do the Skyrizi song!!!



It's so effing lame that it's one of my most hated of all time.



I might like a punked up or speed metal version of it, though.

Try this one....

I got the 3+ minute version.

How about this?






Ok...no, don't this one.

NO...GOD NO, SkyRizi, that horrific f-ing tune! 

Commercials in the 1950's, 60's and 70's were not subtle at all.

The words to most commercial jingles basically amounted to....

Buy our product, it's a good value and has many benefits.

Unlike today where half the time the message is so subtle, you're not even sure what the product is or why you need it, but you come away with the impression that really cool people who you'd like to identify with use it so maybe if you do too, you'll be cool like them.

They're all equally cool.

I guess it's too bad Mick Jagger and Keith Richards aren't doing those ads.

Yet.

I just signed up with a Medicare Advantage Plan.

$0 monthly premium, $0 co-pays and $0 for meds.

Still have to pay the standard Part B Medicare premium, but next year I might try to find one that reimburses me for all of part of that, too.

I chose this one because my current Dr is in their network.

I didn't want to have to change Drs on such short notice.

It's actually not that complicated and the brokers are really good at walking you through it.

I was leery about doing it over the phone, but the reps are never in their offices, so you either have to make an appointment for in person or just do it by phone.

They'll walk you through everything.

If you have a doctor you want to stay with, they'll call the office and ask which plans they accept then you can pick from them.

But understand that a Medicare Supplement plan is different than a Medicare Advantage plan.

The supplement plans charge a premium on top of your part B premium whereas the advantage plans usually don't.

At any rate, you still have until Dec. 7 to do it this year.

Or wait until next October.

Well, you said that coverage was half the reason you stay at your job, so I figured if you wanted to retire the info would be helpful.

I assume you're going to stop working there at some point before they carry you out feet first.

One more thing, is your work insurance free, or do they deduct it from your pay?

Many or most Medicare Advantage plans offer all that coverage for free.

Thor wrote: Thanks for the info. But as long as I'm fully covered through work, I don't need any of that. I have my basic Medicare, but my work coverage negates the need for that, too.

I would have saved a lot of money had I ditched my work plan when I became Medicare eligible.
