Not good. It reminded me that you MUST get a Umbrella Insurance Policy! You never know what will happen until you get sued b/c of an accident. Spend the $300 a year and get a $1mil umbrella!

Many people mistakenly think that group health is cheaper just because they do not take into account the portion of the premiums that their employer is paying on their behalf. If an employer pays for some of the premiums for the employee but not for the spouse or kids then it is often a great strategy to shop for a much cheaper individual health insurance plan as opposed to just joining the same plan as the employee and paying more than necessary.
