    Where are you getting $30 a month? When i looked at it, the cheapest is like $300 with a $10k deductible

      Washington State. My deductible is $600. It’s income based, so my low rate requires me to make very little. That is fine with me, since I have no desire to work more than 32 hours a week and I’ve learned how to live cheaply.

      The insurance my job offered me is $100 a month with a $4,500 deductible, which is absolutely awful in comparison.

        What I especially love is that providers charge a much higher price if you use insurance. A $100 procedure becomes a $1000 procedure if you try to use insurance to pay for it. Then your insurance says “sorry, you haven’t reached your deductible”, and the provider bills you the full amount.
