And this is why my insurance is valuable. If I ever need something that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, my deductible will seem tiny!

That sounds amazing. I’ll def look into something similar in my city. Crossed fingers. Thanks SO much for the tip, that would be awesome for me.

Funny you should mention that because my partner just opened one. It applies to our family and seems to be my best option. Thanks for affirming the choice though, I thin it will work better than dental insurance for now.

That is truly amazing. It blows my mind that people are so horrified about paying more taxes for univeral care, but they don’t mind paying tens of thousands out of pocket for coverage that could potentially be denied? The Repubs sure know how to frighten people.

Yep. I always joke that my dog has better insurance than I do! Obamacare did nothing for me except cause my premiums to triple in two years. I understand and am happy that it helped some people, but it is not a sustainable long term solution. SO glad you ultimately got the coverage you need. I am lucky to have not…

The discount thing is interesting, I will explore that. It must be nice to be paid immediately and without insurance, maybe other dentists do the same. Thanks!

This is the most frustrating aspect of medical insurance IMO. Even when you have it, it often isn’t nearly enough. So people pay exorbitant premiums, co pays, deductibles, etc., and STILL are ruined by medical costs. Infuriating. I am self employed and pay a high premium, have around an $8,000 deductible, and high co…

A friend just went this, and it was such an ordeal. A benign tumor that was so large you could see it with the naked eye and caused severe pain, but removing it was deemed unnecessary. Luckily she could easily pay for it out of pocket, but for a less privileged person it would have been awful.

This seems kind of typical from my experiences as well as those in my community. Insurance is lame for small things, but holy lord does it make a difference when something extreme happens.

I am self employed and struggle so much with dental stuff even though I make a good income by any measure (and am in my mid twenties and still have a couple wisdom teeth kill me now). Dental insurance is expensive and covers almost nothing, but not having it scares me too. No one has good advice either. My insurance…

Ugh the patriarchy at work :(

That question made me so furious. If that was the case, maybe they all should have rolled out a red carpet for Carly “destroyer of HP” Fiorina. That would have also been historic.

Worst tattoos in the world.

Nooooo Donnnnnnn. Rats. I still like him because I am determined to though. Way better than Brooks.

She was so mean. He is one of my fav house-husbands, funny and somewhat humble compared to the massive egos of the rest of them.

Who am I I am going to read this whole thing. Yolanda fascinates me.

I haven’t gotten into this one yet, but the rich kids DO look funny...maybe I should give it a shot. It might fill my VPR shaped hole.

But worst of all: the bad hats. Bro, no more fedoras.

I love RHBH and also loved Boss. I was so torn.

DONN FOREVER. What an extreme downgrade to Brooks.
