She apparently has a net worth of $95M.
She does not need the insurance. She is not like us and does not have real people worries.
She should be ridiculed for acting such. She needs a David Beckham in her life to make her “be honest”.
COBRA means you are paying full price. Here our cheapest family COBRA plan is nearly 3K a month. Individual is $1100 a month. No idea what her cost would be just to keep what she has through COBRA. Her net worth doesn’t tell you anything about how much she has in liquid funds. It could all be tied up in property, the market, or a trust that only gives her an allowance to live on. She also has an autoimmune disease and fibroids, which can require surgical removal. Yeah, she’s in a way better financial position than the average person, but she needs the insurance too. If she can get it cheaper by being employed, why shouldn’t she do that? Should she be forced to blow through her earnings to the point of being destitute just to get health care? No, and none of us should. Should being tied to a job be required to have health insurance, No, none of us should have to go through that. It’s indentured servitude with extra steps.
Let me rephrase: insurance and the healthcare industry are fucked, and people who should be set are screwed just like most people in America. The people who should and could have fixed this are beholden and corrupt. The Obamacare debacle showed what side the people in charge are on.
“I had to come back for the insurance, they informed me earlier this year, I’m on COBRA,” Williams, 45, told interviewer Rennae Stubbs, as they laughed along with the crowd. “So that’s like, I got to get my benefits on. Started training.”
“She’s actually not lying about that, cause we talked about that six years ago,” Stubbs replied. “You’re actually telling the truth. Insurance is hard.”
