KING of Spam Advertisements Raises $34.6M Series C Led by Andreessen Horowitz

CA-based Health IQ, a licensed national agent in all 50 states focused on selling life insurance to those that are health-conscious, announced it has raised $34.6M in a Series C round led by Andreessen Horowitz, bringing its total funding to date to $81.5M .

At times, it sticks.
