One of the amazing parts of being unemployed in the US is thinking about health insurance. Now, I’m ok for a while because of COBRA, but I took a look at the healthcare.gov offerings and… wow. It would be close to $4000/month to cover just my wife and I with something similar to what we have now. There are much cheaper plans - in the $1500/month range that, as far as I can tell, are strictly for catastrophic issues, and otherwise don’t really cover anything substantive. Hopefully there are other options when I get to that point.
