The 1960 ‘s

In my business I did not have Healthcare to deal with ,only large corporations gave HealthCare !  ,but I’ll tell you you I didnt need Healthcare ! my 4 children were born in the 1960’s  My oldest in 1962 ,I paid out of Pocket …I still remember ..The Hospital cost was $265.00 for 3 Days and that included doctors,and everything ! That amounted to about TWO weeks pay for a average working person of that time !  TRY doing that today !  Insurance companies became a middle man and raised the cost at least 30% HIGHER THAN NEEDED. ..iT STILL THAT WAY TODAY !Only thing Insurance did was raise the costs…Health CARE today is way out of whack in relation to other costs of Living.The only other Racket similar today is College Education  ..My oldest Daughter I spoke of ..when she went University of Virginia The costs were $3000.per YEAR which I paid and she worked for about 3/4 of it was paid in cash ..No debt… She paid for most of it from her savings and summer work ,I helped.  In High school she worked 32 hours a week while working after school in evenings and weekends .Her grades didn’t suffer as she was (2nd) in her class. of 600 ..Only in one year that I had 4 in college at the same time did I borrow for one year only .So we got through with only a small borrowing for one year only . They got out with NO debt ! They all worked ,I helped ..I am very proud of their accomplishments …! Impossible to do that today !
