    “What in your wallet” of priority, newer car, this year’s clothing styles, a new pair of
    ostrich boots or shoes, or newer home? Some of the boomers have not had health insurance on the radar screen. If not stricken early with an injury or costly illness you are very aware of the need for health insurance.

    At 18 I was working full time for minimum pay. An isurance visited me on the job, and I was a newly wed of 2 months. Well I bought and kept that plan until I could go with a group plan 2 years later.

    So that was my first priorty. Today, if any boomers or younger don’t have plan in their wallet for any form of health insurance then get employed where you can. Group plans also most pre-existing illnesses. So “what is in your wallet.Don’t wait on government rescue, ok!! ALLLGOOD OF TEXAS
