The American Express Card. Don't experience accidental death and dismemberment away from home without it.
From: [identity profile] franklanguage.livejournal.com
A long time ago—like over 25 years ago—I took a telemarketing job out of desperation, and one product I had to hawk the first night was Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance.

I lasted three nights at this job; it was incredibly stressful, but people were pretty resistant to buying AD&D insurance, as it was called. I personally don't understand why you'd want or need it if you had ample coverage elsewhere, but maybe if you're traveling you want to hedge your bets—and for only $3 a trip. $3 a trip in present-day dollars is probably closer to $15 now, however.

yeah, that guy in the back looks shady, but the people up front look like they're in on it too!
