I found out that I had a pre existing condition, a genetic disease or illness called hemochromatosis. I forget what my husband had at the time. We were a disaster. Now I calculated every time we went to the er. I paid cash and I negotiated. I think I spent $5,000 on my health care for my entire family that year. If I had insurance and co pays and everything else, we calculated to be like 20 to $25,000 that year had we had insurance. So one, I'm a big fan of paying cash. (31:40–31:51)
