Lots of smoke

88 voyager van smokes at slow speeds, when idling and backing. Ive been told its probably the valve stems, but that if I get a valve job, the increased compression would cause other parts such as the pistons to wear out faster. T or f? If true, should I not worry about the smoke and drive it till it dies?

Whats it got for miles. The way I usually figure it is a quart of oil is sometimes cheaper than an overhaul if you dont expect the car to last more than another year
