You can find short term health insurance plans that cost considerably less than regular plans. www.ehealthinsurance.com is a good place to compare plans and sign up online. It isn't a bad deal if you are a seasonal worker. You wont get the most comprehensive coverage but it's better than nothing.

or you could leave the freaking U.S. and be much better off in that department

Ron;
I have recently started to look into health coverage since I will loose mine when I quit and head out to do seasonal work. The two most affordable i found that compares to what I have now at work are both through Humana and Anthem(blue cross blue sheild). At 48 I found that the coverage would cost me 210.00 a month. That being just about double what I pay now at work and the coverage is very comparable. At 800 sounds like you have killer insurance where you work to have to pay that much. Anyrate I hope this helps a bit.

Thanks, Mark. Maybe now I can actually plan to retire in Nov or Jan. I've been in the same business for 32 years and I'm really looking forward to escaping to the woods.
