This is crazy! 60k a year in health insurance premiums?? Wow. I never realized they could get that high.

Crap, I would rather work at home depot when i am "retired" just to get health insurance..[/quote]

Well, there is a single - one - option in all of VA for a ppo. Well, there are two options: a gold and silver ppo.  We did gold for years and it wasn’t worth the extra amount so this is the “lower” silver amount. I didn’t retire young to scrimp on health insurance but it is outrageous. [/quote]

Couple of questions:
- Assuming premiums are lower in MD (or somewhere close by where you can go for doctor's visits), can't you buy an MD plan with a MD address (rent a closet somewhere)?
- I've read about people with very low income ($0 earned/low investment income) but a ton of assets get marketplace discounts.  Is that true?  What are the rules? [/quote]
