### Comment:
Depends. As a healthy adult I pay for health insurance at about 1000 dollars per year (most paid by employer) 
  
 So I have roughly 24.000 more per year to invest or travel the world compared to the exact European making the same money in EU

### REPLY:
thats the point. if youre perfectly healthy you come out slightly ahead, but if you get sick at all, youll likely be in the hole thousands of dollars. you should not have to be afraid of getting sick or going to the doctor for fear of being bankrupt
