I had a friend who had all four of their kids at home, he said it cost them about six hundred bucks a kid for maternity checkups and the birth-nurse.
On the other hand, both our kids were c-sections at a hospital, which I figured cost more than the total amount I had paid for health insurance by that point.
Nothing though compared to my son’s 10 days in neonatal icu. That was more expensive than my car.
On the other hand, I didn’t have insurance to buy my car, I just saved up the $25,000 and bought a car. So I guess that if I didn’t have insurance, I would have found a way to save up the $25,000 to pay for my son’s medical treatments.
Difference being that everybody buys a car, not everybody has to have expensive medical treatment. So if I got together with some friends, we could all agree that if any of us needs medical care, we will all pay equally for it.
Hey, that’s insurance.

Just curious, would you include any underwriting criteria, or would you offer the same deal to all your friends regardless of their health, habits, etc?
