Thank you CA renter. We were CA renters too from 2004 – end of ’09.
The problem is that I do not think my situation is all that unusual. Anyone of the sandwich generation could have these issues. Kids in college, elderly parents. Parents that outlive their savings. All it takes is one spouse to get ill to reach the tipping point. Many medical services we may want are not covered, especially alternative such as acupuncture, homeopathy, preventative on going care. Copays for medicine that used to be $5 when we didn’t need them are $45 now that we do. It can add up real fast.
