#3: " If both husband and wife are working, they can’t afford a $116 co-pay?"

You don't understand. They had more pressing needs:

• 70 inch flat screen TV
• Cable and Internet.
• Tricked out $50K truck.
• Shopping on Amazon.
• Eating at restaurants.
• Caribbean Cruise.

SERIOUSLY!!??

You're going to take the sad news of a school teacher's untimely death and armchair-judge her imaginary financial decisions???

Damn, there are some cold-blooded jerks on FR.

“Shopping on Amazon.”

I’m doing it so I don’t have to go out to the store. We’ve been avoiding people in general for weeks. Luckily my wife and I work from home and on the phone all day.

I know people that pay right at $300 per month for cable TV. I am not talking about rich people. That’s almost $4000 per year to watch freakin’ TV.

That said, I don’t know the teacher’s situation. I would find it difficult to believe they couldn’t come up with $116. She may have felt she was getting better without the medication. I get prescriptions filled and never take them if I don’t absolutely need them.
