ERIC JOHNSON - The Financial Independence Project

Eric is the perfect follow up after Laura lee’s - Broke is Beautiful on the 21st.. Eric states. My back ground is in the mortgage and financial consulting world.  I'm in the process of creating The Financial Independence Project which is geared around assisting people in getting out of the mentality of the use of 'debt' for funding their lives.  It requires a 'mind-shift.' There is no one size fits all with regards to the health insurance conversation. Here are some things as you decide what is appropriate for you and your family.The typical American family buying health insurance spent approximately $10,880 per year for health insurance in 2005.  This is up 71% from $6,348 in 2000.  As of 2009, the numbers are even higher In addition to health insurance, for those that actually needed medical care, there are the additional expenses associated with co-pays and the ugly ‘non-covered’ medical conditions and procedures that occur more often than anyone would care to admit. Contemplate the fact that the perceived ‘need’ for health insurance is slid into the minds of so many as an automatic necessity,a presupposition for existence almost as many proponents would have us believe.  It’s a presupposition that is very worthy of careful examination.  What other options are there?  What financial models may exist that would preclude the need to purchase health insurance? What sort of beliefs would one have to have in order to see health insurance as possibly a drain on the economic viability of the American family?  In my many conversations with many people of varied backgrounds, beliefs and habits, I’ve found a coterie of people that have gone against the grain and don’t purchase health insurance. Enjoy meeting a couple of these people. Ej4Expanse@aol.com The Financial Independence Project, Inc.   Become Debt Free, Cease 'Interest Serfdom' and Create Money & Abundance,Expanse Financial, Inc.
