  This is what I do as a business owner. Buy insurance from the marketplace.

  I do enjoy myself every night but not sure how that’s related.

  I can, but it’s still outrageously expensive compared to my current situation. It would put a lot of financial stress on us in a situation that’s already stressful in every way possible.

    I have my own business and buy my health insurance from the marketplace. Yes it’s expensive, but at a job that’s just part of your salary you never see.
