      But at least its not Socialism!.. My God, how terrible that would be! Says he who lived under a single payer health care system in Europe for 36 years and my family still do... Superb care and the average tax bill for HC is an extra $300/month and that includes everything. If they put you in a helicopter the out of pocket cost to you the patient is $ZERO.. No BS networks or insurance company refusing to pay because you went to the wrong hospital.. Oh and it includes dental.. What a TERRIBLE system! s it perfect?.. No, but its a HELL of a lot better than the crony capitalist cartel we have in the USA.

      @@downtownbigcity9552 This is the UK. I emigrated here in '96 but my fam is still all back there. Most European countries have a similar system except the financial models vary from single payer to insurance based. Most of the systems are some kind of hybrid of the two. Either way the USA is by far the most expensive. In the US we spend roughly $10 per person per year (public/private combined). In the UK the cost is about $3500.

    I’m so glad you covered this topic. I looked seriously at the various MediShare programs including Samaritan about 1 month ago before starting Open Enrollment. Those options were so much cheaper than health insurance but in the end I was scared off due to lack of regulation and over-site. Your experience has eased my mind quite a bit and I’ll reconsider next year. Thank you for your balanced, informative and transparent approach to this and all topics you cover. I’m so glad you’re back in good health and seem to be recovering quite well.

    I like the concept of your videos on what it takes to run a small business. Your absolutely correct that healthcare cost is a huge road block to stepping out on your own. We all measure success differently, and one lesson I’m trying to teach my kids is, wealth and happiness do not correlate, and only trading your time for money will not make you wealthy. While there young (same age as your daughter), take risks, be your own boss, be responsible for your actions, don’t be careless. So, I’m looking forward to this video series and hope to pass along some knowledge. Thanks.

    Excellent, excellent, excellent! I had the same stent inserted by the VA about seven years ago. Had no idea a regular hospital charged so much! have had both hips replaced, right shoulder replaced twice and a lot of repair work done on my left hand over the years, not to mention a lot of issues with a-fib. Too scared to even think what all that would have cost me outside of the VA. I guess my time in the military is really paying me big dividends now!
    But, my wife retired about four years ago and pays those huge premiums as well as prescription costs. We do use Costco for better prices, but will look into Sam's Club.
    We are non smokers and non drinkers also, but like you, I really enjoy a good bacon-cheese-burger!
