        Probably not, but will not be for a lack of trying. Always a chance a customer can have an "emergency"...

        Sad thing about MoA is that I had a 6ish hour layover in MSP a couple years back and did not know it was literally right next to the airport until afterwards. Could have gotten the sightseeing thing out of the way then. Meh, I'll live.

            You dropped any US healthcare, I would assume.

            Mine is going down by $230 because I am taking a risk with a shittier plan. We have had too many child sicknesses and injuries for us to drop insurance and just pay cash for services plus the penalty. If I get a solid year+ of healthy kids I may go that route.

              Oh, well yes I did. However I thought that we were talking car insurance for some reason. My car insurance went down this year 🙂

              But yes, my healthcare did drop dramatically too by dropping insurance completely.

                We really tried hard to get official US health insurance, but literally we were uncoverable under Obamacare. No plan is offered that satisfies the tax requirements of Obamacare and covers us. So it's a gap in coverage. We read about it a lot and several sources said from day one that this was a known gap and a category of people just being ignored right now.

                The problem that we face is that we could spend a fortune for useless healthcare and not pay the tax penalty, but we'd get no coverage and we'd pay far more than the penalty is. That doesn't just waste money, but it uses up money that we would otherwise need to have saved up to deal with a medical emergency since we have to pay out of pocket for whatever we need.

                Just stuck, unfortunately.

                            Is that because of your traveling?

                                    Yes, it's because I travel almost continuously but visit family in the US for more than 30 or 35 days a year (we can't get below 45 realistically.) We are in the US about two weeks longer than they account for in any way. It's really because we visit the US "too much" that is the problem. If we could cut back family visits to 29 days a year, we'd be all set.
