LabGuy,
I agree and that's what we have/can afford. "Real coverage", even
7 years ago when we moved to NC and my COBRA expired, was very
expensive then...now, it's really costly; thus, we rolled the dice and
chose Major Medical only. Fixed income requires real attention to
expenses, esp. due to the past 6 months of porfolio erosion.
