      This is a new way of looking at it for me. Thanks for sharing this perspective.
      I did a quick Google and found this:  In 2020, …the average payment for public health care insurance ranges from $4,190 to $14,474…
      The 10 percent of Canadian families with the lowest incomes will pay an average of about $471 for public health care insurance in 2020. The 10 percent of Canadian families who earn an average income of $65,522 will pay an aver- age of $6,627 for public health care insurance, and the families among the top 10 percent of income earners in Canada will pay $39,731.
      Not sure if this is CAD or USD but interesting to have a ballpark understanding. Thanks again.

      I understand that they're supposed to be decorative, but what I don't understand is having a decoration that actively takes the space of something that could be functional. I have paintings on my wall, where they look beautiful and don't interfere with function. Having pillows that have to be taken off a bed or couch before you can sit on them makes no sense.

      And if you actually need to use your insurance for anything big like cancer, you’ll be fighting your insurance company to pay for treatments and care outside of the hospital. Needing extra insurance to cover what your main one does not. It is definitely not as a cheap and easy and Jon and George are portraying. I respect them greatly, but having lived on both sides of the border I do not agree when them on this one. Cost of living may be less but so is your paycheck!

    According to the Ramsey philosophy, in order to afford a $2000 mortgage/$300k home, you need a $120,000 salary!
    That is $10k/mo - $2k taxes, then 25% of the raminding $8k.
    That $2000 monthly gets you a $230k mortgage at 15yrs. For a nice $300k home after the 20% down payment.
