I am a high school student who needs information on the insurance rates for smokers vs. non smokers. Please give me all ALL the information you can find. This is important and I need it soon. As school is almost out.

Hey Kiddo, it is not good news. Each insurance company has different rates, so the best way to find out what it is will be for you to go to the company you want insurance with and check it out.

I know that when I smoked and my husband anad I went to get insurance his ( a non smoker) was about 30% cheaper than mine was.

Good luck!!!!!!!
