13. I pay for health insurance......
Fri Apr 26, 2013, 03:02 PM
Apr 2013

but technically can't use it since my deductible is $7500 and my copay for an office visit is $40 per visit. I get $1000 a month from Social Security and less than $200 a month for a small pension, so $40 is a lot of money to me. I just have to hope that I can stay healthy until I'm 65 .and eligible for Medicare a year from now. Sometimes I am tempted to drop the health insurance and take my chances. It's a ripoff.
