Let's talk about...health insurance!
I was just wondering, how many of y'all have health insurance, and how much do you know about it?
Before I started working for a health fund, I had absolutely zero idea at all about how health insurance works; it has been a very eye-opening experience for me. I've decided I'm gonna get hospital and ancillary cover this year, but if I had never got my current job I would never have given health insurance a second thought.
It doesn't surprise me that people who don't have it don't know anything about it cause I know I didn't, but it does kind of blow me away that there are so many people who have been throwing money at their health fund for years and have absolutely no idea at all what they're actually paying for....I mean it's not a cheap thing to have, I guess I would have thought that people might try to take some interest in what they're throwing their money at every month...
So...any thoughts? I know it's boring as fuck, but I figure it might be worth discussing something that maybe people have never given a second thought to and maybe should...
