shittygsxr Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 So' date=' because you think it's a scam I shouldn't be allowed to use it? How very democrat of you. I wouldn't call me or Justin "rich", so how come it works for us?[/quote']it says rich or healthy, so I guess it could reward you for living a healthier lifestyle. It's not like people cause 90% of their ailments with poor lifestyle choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 better? btw, it's the mayoclinics website...you've heard of the mayo clinic right?http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/health-savings-accounts/GA00053Yea... that's a much better link. Read it, then make your choice. What's so hard? There's pro/cons to owning a motorcycle, but I'm not bitching that motorcycles are a scam that favor people with coordination and balance.

shittygsxr Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 You could have a HSA/HDHP pretty much under wraps in less than a year with that kind of money. How often do you use your insurance?So are you saying health insurance is actually pretty affordable and if people could read then and think for themselves then Barack would not have to come to the rescue? Maybe instead of spending $1,000,000,000,000 we could solve this problem with just making an insurance advisor available to people with low IQ's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had zero clue how health care worked and it only took 2 one hour meetings with our Broker for work to get the gist of things. Enough to at least figure out how to make it work better for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's going to subsidize all the other stuff we have to do for people with low IQs? I suppose we'll always have ORDN. I nominate shittygsxr for the czar of 'free advice for poor stupid people' on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Not really. The information is already paid for through the policy. They just never took advantage of it. Another fine example of Americans not using their dollars wisely.I suppose this is also true. I said virtually free because we have given 0 dollars to this new broker trying to get our business and I have learned a fair amount from him in 2 hour long meetings of all the pros/cons of the plans we have been looking at or plans we should consider as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
