it's 2 months. if you really need it just get travel insurance. that should be do-able in 12k.


It's quite unlikely that travel insurance would cover chronic and critical illnesses like cancer though, which other forms of healthcare would cover.


If I have the dreaded "Pre-Existing Condition!", somehow I doubt that would work.


then maybe you should find a jerb. entrepreneurship is risky.


That's an extremely terrible answer that really only serves to diminish the diversity of startup culture.


Might not be the answer you want to hear, but it's the truth. If you can not deal with the ambiguity of not being covered for long term illness by insurance, entrepreneurship is likely not for you.


No, it's not the truth. There is absolutely nothing correlating entrepreneurship with not being able to insure yourself or your family. The only reason that is right now is because the startup culture is filled with 20 somethings right out of school, and no one wants to change that.
