Planning on dropping Health Insurance. Change my mind.

[D2Cat]

That pretty much stops the bleeding. If the problem is not life threatening than send them on their way. Don稚 waste tons of money fighting terminal diseases either. When my time comes I want to go in a quick and as painless as possible fashion regardless of who is paying. When your pet reaches the end of its life it痴 considered the right thing to do to put it down. Why prolong your loved one suffering for months or years. I知 not suggesting euthanizing but let it happen naturally and stop with the life 都aving stuff. Leaving your family ( even if they?*e the ones making the decisions ) drowning in debt only to prolong the inevitable when your quality of life is gone is stupid IMO. And like I said in in the 4th sentence I don稚 want to live like that even if insurance is paying.

There is paperwork you can fill out to let others know your wishes at a time when you can't speak for yourself. Others have the same option. Oh, by the way, we all have a terminal illness.

I got 3 stitches in my hand at the ER. In hindsight I wouldn’t have died or caused any other problems by taping it up and going to the private clinic in the morning. After cutting my hand again and quite a bit worse I went to the private clinic. I don’t remember that bill, but with me paying the whole thing no insurance involved was less than $100. My portion of the ER visit was $600.

I don't understand why ERs don't have an urgent care clinic next door. Gun shot wound or heart attack? Come on in. Sniffles or a bad cough? Go next door.

Not going to try to change your mind at all OP.

Some guys have to pee on the electric fence for themselves to find out it hurts.

You know - like Slowpoke Slim - I'm not going to try to change your mind. I suggest that if you are serious about saving money and your house is paid for - drop your homeowners insurance - same with your autos.

Join the LARGE group of folks who have no insurance because they can not afford it.

Just remember - you get in an auto accident and its your fault - - somebody else will own everything you now own.

Your house burn - Red Cross will give you a blanket.

You need medical care - tough s**t.

Get into an auto accident that’s not your fault and you’ll still be drowning in debt that you’ll likely never afford to pay.

I would never consider dropping auto insurance, that’s foolish, same with homeowners, too much of a risk.

I plan on keeping medical so no need to inflate the dropping insurances.

You must be in a no fault state.

Actually no, but if you get hurt and the person that hits you has no insurance or no money who’s paying the bill?

That's why I carry uninsured motorist insurance. However, after my previous post I realized that I really don't know as I have never had a serious accident.

And try to replace a vehicle that's been totaled by the insurance company with an equivalent age & condition with the money the insurance company says it's worth. I argued that and got a little more, but still cost me a bunch.
