Re: which is your health insurance?
Considering that the wager is your life, that could've been worse.

I get mine supplied by work but I don't know who the company is or what the policy entails...... I should probably check that. LOL

$20,000 over how many years of no insurance? if more than 20, hardly any lossI'm a gambler, no health insurance for me. My gamble lost big time. ~20k in medical fees

Sure the house always wins. But that's the case with every business you have any kinds of dealings with, be it Lucky Supermarket or your Tuk Tuk driver, or your bank or whatever.
In case of serious health trouble, in the West you end up broke, and you pay them back until you're 120 years old. Here - if you run out of cash, they switch off the machine.

Aetna.
They've already paid more than $15,000 in medical bills for me just this year. Twice in Bumrungrad for surgery, one major emergency surgery, one spendy elective surgery, and didn't pay a single baht from admission to discharge.

in 28 so my health isnt a great concern regards to needing insurance, i've not had health insurance for years whilst being in Cambodia, but after a couple of accidents on my moto (where i was lucky to just come out with cuts and bruises) it has made me consider health insurance, not so much for general medical shit, as id rather just pay for that like sailorman says just as and when i need it, but just in the rare occasion that if i died, my family wouldnt have to fork out to fly my body home back to england, it happened to my uncle 5 years ago but luckily he had insurance, i wouldnt fork out how much most of these posters are paying though...
was looking at some travel/health insurance and the cheapest i found was i think $200 for the year

Re: which is your health insurance?
That's a probably just travel insurance that in case of sickness will try to transfer you back to your home country asap, where you get free healthcare (in case of UK), or need to pay the bill yourself (in the other 149 countries)
