Too much.... in my 20s, I paid $80 a month for HMO health insurance.

$700 a month for a family of four is paid only by suckers. You’re better off on state Medicaid, depending on whether you qualify for it with your income.

I should have qualified the quote: we are in our late 50s with two young dependents. Whole different ball game from “in my 20s”. That was the lowest commercial quote I found. Though we don’t qualify for state Medicaid because of necessary withdrawals from my IRA, we did end up on a state plan (they call it a “transition plan”). No idea what is going to happen next year or what our premiums will be.
