Amish don't have any insurance, and before they enter a hospital they want to know what the price is of everything. It annoys people working there but so be it.
I've had a FitBit fitness tracker for 4 1/2 years. I can't even re-set the time on it after its battery runs down without connecting to the fitbit app -- which only works after I un-install and re-install it on my phone. Planning to retire this device soon and buy a plain, old digital watch which doesn't work with an app.
I received a 22,000 hospital bill, because of emergency surgery, needed because a dentist botched up a simple procedure in my head. But fortunately I had universal health care, which we in America call Medicare. My final bill was $400. We need universal healthcare.
Here’s some options that you have when buying anything smart. You could not connected to the Internet, not connected to your Wi-Fi at all. Some vendors require you to have the Internet attached to the smart TV. If that’s the case, you can automatically just return it get a different smart TV just don’t plug it in, if you want to use an excel type of device like an Apple TV or an android fire you can use that instead of plugging in your television. The next thing I would say from a privacy standpoint is if you’re technically inclined to configure your own firewall to do DNS syncing and ensure that all traffic from those devices that are going to known telemetry data DNS is removed therefore even if they try to go out, they would just go to nowhere and not be able to send that data. There’s lots and lots of ways of trying to do this at this point. I’ve also heard that Samsung is starting to brick televisions if you do not get certain updates in the future because they want advertisement renew my recommendation never buy those TVs anymore, if they start losing revenue because they choose to be greedy then overtime they will have to change their own tactics to stay relevant and in the market
Many reports say they do but for different reasons. While we're worried about data breaches, identity theft, credit card fraud, etc... Younger generations have no-to-low assets, so these things aren't a threat to them. They are worried more about helicopter parents, stalkers, bullying/harassment, sexual orientation, embarrassing photos/videos, etc... As they age and gain more assets, they'll wise up. 💚
They slip in doctors not coveted by your insurance despite your written note saying no outside insurance doctors

Love this! 💚
Nursing homes are comparable to hospitals as far as billing goes.
The Oura ring is completely worthless. Don’t waste your money on it.
Maybe if you're healthy. But if you have health challenges and need to keep a close eye on your numbers, an Oura ring may be worth it. 💚
Great show and info as always 😊

''is it worth the risk?''
it is not a risk, it is a ''certainty''.

Your Mom is waisting her time sending the mail back. Just put it in the recycle bin.

What do you think about Delete Me Service? Is it worth the money?
No, DeleteMe is not worth the money. We recommend these 4 ways to stop junk mail instead: clark.com/consumer-issues-id-theft/stop-junk-mail/
Thank you Team Clark.
I thought Obamacare fixed all these Healthcare problems. What Happened ? Why doesn't everyone just sign up for Obamacare ? Think about that...

How do we find out which States are affected by zero dollar claim insurance? Tried googling but nothing came up ⬆️
I notice younger generations do not seem to care as much about privacy. Do they?
Well when they wake up they they'll care a lot
