Man, my health insurance just went up $50 per month. Apparently I turned 40.
Ignore the fact that I've only USED my health insurance how many times? Oh that's right NONE!!!

You've never gone to the doctor, for any reason?

At 40, you're long overdue for a checkup.

Personally, the maternity coverage alone has been more than worth the monthly premiums.

Just not in the last 2 years or so.
Yeah, yeah....

I once moved (about a half hour driving distance) and my insurance went up about as much. I was self-employed and "buying my own." I called to ask why the increase, since I still go to the same doctor, have access to the same hospital and didn't move next to a toxic dumping ground. They said health care costs were higher in the zip codes surrounding me. I had moved near a Leisure World (small-city-sized retirement community where the average age is probably 80). Not fair.
