lol, didn't realize that. if you do indeed part-time as a rodeo clown, then you should get any insurance asap (any at all), and lasik is probably not a bad idea either. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

So, is 415 too much? What is reasonable?

For my employeer, it would cost around $160 a month to add someone to my insurance. Keep in mind that this was last years rate and my employer gets a hefty group discount. And my employeer probably pays a portion of the additional expense.

I'm not surprised that it runs $415 a month for an individual.

You guys (pros/semipros) should unionize and get group insurance rates.

Anything cheaper is probably a rip off. When I was in college you had to pay 1k a year for insurance (if you weren't covered on your parents insurance.) It was pretty useless, you couldn't see a regular doctor and it only covered hospital stays. (Like if you got hit by a bus or something.)
