A little white lie spoken is one thing but a deliberate lie on any legal document could come back to haunt the person concerned.
I hate lies anyway so honesty is the best policy as far as I'm concerned.

Re: Honesty
Back in 2002, we had cause to renew a life policy attached to an Endowment, standard questions, "do you smoke", No, "do you drink" yes, "how much", a bottle of wine of an evening, cover was not renewed, haven't bothered with life assurance since, would have been easier to say No, but in retrospect, it has saved me a few bob over the years.

My nature is to be honest too but at that time I could see that keeping quiet would have been better.
It heralded a few desperate years for us and my mental health definitely suffered ... got kind of phobic about the mail !!! the threatening letters and brown envelopes gave me many a sleepless night.
