Seriously??? geesh… welcome to the inflation of health costs!! I had an abdominal MRI done 2007, with contrast. I did ask if I got a discount for cash pay on the spot.. which they said that there was.. and it ending up being just under $700 at Sharp Hospital.

Last projection for depletion of the SS fund that I saw was 2034. https://www.ssa.gov/oact/trsum/ search on 2034.
