Default Re: how many of you buy medical/dental insurance? And how much is it?

i personally do not have medical insurance right now but am also considering it as well. however, one thing that has recently come to my attention is that if something catastrophic does happen you will get treatment and just be in debt for 100k or whatever the bill is. if you keep your money in a safe box or buried in the ground or something, they cant take that from you. if you own a house thats a whole different story.

personally, since im 20 i dont have many assest to lose. if i am in debt for 100k cant i just move to another country outside of us jurisdiction and avoid paying the debt, or how does this work? i really have no interest in living in america for the rest of my life anyway, and forsee myself moving to the caribean sometime in my 30s hopefully.

under these circumstances, shouldnt i just avoid getting insurance and if something catastrophic does happen i just move to another country?

is this even legal?
