I have recently immigrated to the US. I need health insurance until I find a job which provides with one. I visited healthcare.gov and it was bit confusing as some of the plans were showing up a minimum of 500$/month (49 year old). Could someone advise me whether there are cheaper options.

From the Billions spent on social services, from rental vouchers, to HEAP energy assistance, to SNAP food ebt benefits, to free internet service thru ACP, to free govt provided cells, to healthcare.gov, to earned income credits for working . That's how many are doing it. Information is a means to power! Source: 6 months ago

Go to healthcare.gov and see if you qualify for insurance. Maximum out of pocket depends on the type of plan you pick and what it covers. If you don't qualify through healthcare.gov, you will need to buy insurance on your own which could be quite expensive. Source: 6 months ago

You can still get it done without insurance, it's just really expensive. It will be thousands of dollars cheaper to get insurance for a year or so and have the surgery covered than to try and pay for it out of pocket, so it's worth maybe getting insurance. If you're in the USA, healthcare.gov is currently in its 2024 enrollment period so you can buy insurance right now for next year. Source: 6 months ago

If you check on sites like slickdeals.net, you can often find listings for ebay deals on refurbished prebuilts like this HP. It's $319 with a 5600g, 12gb ram, 256gb ssd and 1tb hdd. Source: 6 months ago

You can absolutely find a better deal than that. That hardware is quite old for the price. I'd try looking at https://reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/ for the occasional prebuilt posted there, and sites like https://slickdeals.net/ have prebuilts posted as well. Source: 6 months ago

Note: If you want to pay more for better bass the Monolith 10" THX and 12" THX subs are on sale right now too-you can read the same audioholics review on both of those models. For home theatre bass matters the most, then a good center channel, then mains, then surrounds. A Speedwoofer 10S would blow you away compared to what you have and totally elevate your system immediately-the Monolith subs are more... Source: 7 months ago

I tried to post a deal on Kobra 2 Neo (what with the "singles day" 11/11 and Black Friday sales campaigns) to https://slickdeals.net/ , the deals site - only to see it deleted within a few minutes by a moderator. Source: 7 months ago

I honestly don't know if this is a bad-okay-good-great deal but I like slickdeals.net because you can read other people's comments on the particular deal and make your down decision. Not advocating, please do your own research. Source: 9 months ago
