Sounds like you did the bare minimum research which seems to match your effort for life in general. Enjoy your “retirement” although I’m not sure what you’re actually retiring from.

As usual you would be mistaken. Same coverage as an employee, deductibles and max out of pockets. You even get the HRA that employees get. 18 months of coverage. Beginning in 2021. FedEx is paying a monthly supplement up to $600 per month to help with the cost. Just maybe you dont know as much as you think.

When you have a nice retirement nest egg, your income prevents you from getting subsidized insurance. Like I said, you are the authority on everything, even when you have no clue to what you are talking about.
If there's only 2 people living in your household and your income is above about $62,000 per year then you're pretty much SOOL. Furthermore if the Trump SCOTUS overturns the ACA combined with a healthcare system collapsing under the weight of COVID we're all SOOL, which could very easily mean... no cash... no care.

Who said anything about subsidized insurance? You can buy a plan through your state for a hell of a lot cheaper than paying the full premium for Fat Freddy’s two bit insurance plan. But hey, don’t let me tell you how to spend your wife’s “lottery winnings.”
The only "state" insurance I know of is Medicaid. A state managed but 90% federally funded health insurance plan for the impoverished including those who work for very low wages.
Do you guys know of any states that offer anything additional?

Maryland, Delaware, and Pennsylvania let you buy your own insurance through a state-run marketplace. The amount you pay varies on the insurance you need, and it can be pricy, but it’s still significantly cheaper than COBRA.

Do you have ANY idea what Cobra costs?

I dont live in Maryland, Delaware or Pennsylvania. Like I said, my state discontinued its state plan when Obamacare was created. Guess reading comprehension isnt your strong point.
You are just ignorant about retiree insurance cost , needs and options. Stay in your lane.

Yeah, I’ll take reading comprehension pointers from a guy who can’t spell or punctuate a sentence. Stay in YOUR lane.
Right. The states manage their own exchanges under the ACA which is permitted rather than the federal exchanges but do these states underwrite their own insurance contracts? To my knowledge they don't. All their doing is managing the ACA/Obamacare program.

You keep talking about how high it is, how I am getting bent over and how cheaper options are available. If you dont know how much it cost, how do you know any of what you say to be true?

Old Falcon Fart would have probably been able to understand you better had you left in the grammatical typo.

Then tell us how much it costs and dispel all rumors.

You keep avoiding the main question. If you KNOW for a fact I am getting bent over, I am a chump and that cheaper options are available. Prove it by telling us how much Cobra cost.
