One accident and you could end up with a half million dollar hospital bill. My daughter came into this world with a 6 figure bill from the NICU. Thank god we have insurance.$350 x 12 x 50 = $210,000!!! Not including compound interest you could have been making on this money which would make this an easy multi-million.
You're better off PUTTING IT IN THE BANK! When you get hurt or sick, take the money out. The gov't should force all people to have self-insurance like this and not let companies profit on our misery.

If lots of Americans can work at plants for $12/hr., why should some union worker make $35 doing the same thing?
Unions fight for "fair wages". Wages that people can actually live on. Could you live on $12/hr.??? Maybe in Arkansas in a trailer park, but not where I live.Chapter 7 filed 10/21/2008
341 - 11/26 went smooth
NO ASSET
Took 115 days after 341 - But Finally DISCHARGED 3/25/09

You have to fight with most insurance companies. They never want to pay the bill after you paid all of those premiums. I can't stand them anymore.Originally posted by hereforinfo View PostOne accident and you could end up with a half million dollar hospital bill.

You need to self-insure from the time you start working. They need to teach this in junior high and high school. They should also make it a law that you have to put away X amount of money out of your paycheck into some kind of fund that you're not allowed to touch which can only be used to pay for a hospital bill or a car accident and nothing else.
And if you make it to like 70 or 80 years old, then you can have all of the money back with interest.
Imagine if everyone had to do this? At least when somebody crashed into you, you know everything would be paid.

If the union people are getting it, then ALL of us need to get fair wages. For a person to gain, that means others are losing. NOBODY should lose. All of us should make no less than $50-60k/yr.

Our insurance company paid all the bills, we only had to pay our copayments and coinsurance, up to the yearly maximum.
Self insurance doesn't help you if you only have $10k in your self insurance account and end up with a $200k hospital bill, genius. You are assuming that no one gets injured or sick until they are 80.

Yep. The trick is to stop getting injured or sick. Just knock it off right now.Originally posted by hereforinfo View PostOur insurance company paid all the bills, we only had to pay our copayments and coinsurance, up to the yearly maximum.

Well, now I get sick all the time, but I just don't go to the doctor or anything. I stay home and wing it.Originally posted by 2Bshinyandnew View PostOhhh Debtmonster...LOL!

But for the past 600,000 miles or so, I am not the cause of any accidents. Let people crash you. Just whatever you do, DON'T CRASH THEM! Never let it be your fault.
Never drive a vehicle that is not equipped without stability control. Try to stick with Mercedes Benz, BMW, Audi, Ferrari, Aston Martin's, Jaquar's or even some of the newer Hyundai's that now all come with stability control.
Never drive any SUV that is easy to roll over.
I've been doing this and it has been working. I even tested this with my BMW. I would approach a dirt road at a high rate of speed and see if the vehicle will go sideways. The stability control kicks in and prevents it from happening. This makes it much more difficult to lose control and get into an accident. They say by 2010, almost all cars will have stability control and it is expected to save about 10,000 lives per year. Yippee!

[QUOTE=debtmonster;217069]Still on the unfair trip, I see. I wonder who ever told that life is fair. Go volunteer at a veterans hospital full of men and women with shattered bodies and tell THEM how UNFAIR YOUR LIFE IS.Originally posted by relief13035 View Post

Please follow your own advice. Which obviously, you don't. You are an ignorant fool. You live in the greatest country in the world concerning opportunity, and yet you sit at home all day *****ing and whining about how unfair everything is. Here's an idea: Get off your gastric bypass needing butt and DO SOMETHING.

Once again, I am not the only one with this opinion. Lots of people agree with me whether they post or not. Most people just keep their mouth shut. I just happened to be one that likes to express their opinion.
I will sit home and make my money. You can go off and go fiddle with your low paying day job. Good luck on that one, Skippy.

I will sit home and make my money. Oh, I thought you had something like $8 for groceries to last two weeks. Isn't that what you posted?You can go off and go fiddle with your low paying day job. Will you do my taxes again this year? I mean, obviously you did them last year and that makes you privy to how much money I make. According to your posts, if you made what I make, you'd be rich. Good luck on that one, Skippy.Thanks. Same to you.

If I wasn't paying the debts, $4200/mo. goes a long way.
Yes, I do have better things to do than going around working for free. Nobody ever does anything for me for free. So I'm not going to do any volunteer work for free. Not gonna happen, Captain.
I also agree with lots of the stuff the Klan says... just not all of it. I'd join the Klan, but I do not have any real hatred towards the people they hate.
