whileHe’s in a bit of a jam.

health insurance. This really got me thinking, and I
wondered if we shouldn’t look into a couple of different
HMO’s.
A: Yeah, you’re right. We aren’t getting any younger and
our kids are getting older.

HMO’s with low co pays and good coverage. The
deductibles are low, too.

A: I wish our company or country provided us with
healthcare.
B: Not in a million years!
