Though, most probably, whenever we have an accident, there is one thing in the contract that stops us from getting our mony. Sad but true. The problem is like this: insurance is perhaps a good thing.

Generally speaking, both people with and without coverage take health insurance for granted. Do yourself a favor and make sure that you never fall into this level of thinking. No matter who you are, it is very important that you always have some sort of health insurance coverage. Having health insurance is more important than many people realize.

The health insurance is considered as the most important insurance for the people as well as car and other insurance. In every country, there are many insurance companies that could be selected by the clients. We should compare the benefits and choose the most suitable one for ourselves.

I have left the working world, and I don't have health insurance. I do, however, have 1.25 mil bucks, thanks to saving saving saving over my lifetime. Many of the things that people have "warned" you about aren't inevitabilities, as I'm sure you know: i.e. marriage, kids, mortgage. People often get themselves boxed in & cannot think out of the box. A hospital ER won't deny you care & you can pay them a little at a time, interest-free. Go for it. I have left the working world, and I don't have health insurance.

I had full benefits, but I believe quite strongly that I gave myself higher blood pressure for life after working there, eating all the midnight takout, no longer excercising, basically losing my healthy life.... and no longer taking care of my health due to the insanity of working there coupled with the "full health insurance" in case anything went wrong.... well, whatever goes wrong will be in the future.... Now I work for a startup and I have my own catastrophic health insurance, but I've come to realize that taking care of oneself is a form of low-tech, but very effective "health insurance" and that some of the companies that offer so-called great insurance do so because they burn out people I have a congenital heart condition too…. and I had full benefits at a job that drove me crazy, drove up my blood pressure, had 80-100 hour workweeks as a web developer with insane deadlines and constantly changing specs….
