hi prometheus-

i do worry about healthcare. i have a $10,000 deductible policy so i am not ruined financially if something serious happens. i live a fairly healthy lifestyle and stick pins in insurance company ceo voodoo dolls every night.

my family has flown so its just me and my sylvan consort.

one piece of the story i did leave out: my ex's family had money and helped us buy our home. my lifestyle, as modest as it was, did depend on their occasional largess, especially when i was raising a family. to call myself a self-made man would be a lie, nevertheless, especially here in the US, there are plenty of people in similar situations.

all the best,
-dan
