Do you have health insurance??


Answers: No, I do not. Haven't wasted money on that stuff since 1980. Why pay in advance for something that may not happen? Why pay in advance for something I do not want?

You work it out, All the medical cost have to be borne by all the participants, OK? So we divide that cost by the number of participants, and we get an average cost. We tack on 10 percent for administration, and hey presto, we have a fee to charge. So everyone pays his share, and the system works. Great, go for it if you must.

However, if you choose to go for it, realize that you are placing your bet that you will be sicker than the average. If you plan to be more healthy than the average, why would you want to pay in advance? You can always pay on the day.

Then you don't get caught up in the cultural expectation that you have to be sick a fair bit to get your money back.

Talk about a sickness?
