My dad, who is in his late 60s, has about $200k to live off of in his retirement. Provided I outlive him, I have a sneaking suspicion that his savings will not only be siphoned out by whatever hospital system inevitably treats him, but that _I_ will have to cough up the remainder! Granted, this isn't a discussion he and I have had. Just goes to show that if you have some terminal condition in this broken country, it's better to just be hit by a bus or drown, than be "treated" comfortably in a hospital bed for $5k+ a night.
