For an oldie like me it makes no sense to get out of #healthinsurance. But if I was starting work at age 16 I would open bank account and deposit equivalent of cost of insurance every year so it can accumulate enough to cover future #health costs. I reckon in my old age I would wind up in front.

Government incentives continue to drive people to take out cover merely to avoid tax penalties

Australia celebrates 125th birthday today. On New Years Day 1901 our first governor general Lord Hopetoun told massive crowd that gathered in Sydney that Queen Victoria had approved federation of 6 colonies to form new nation of Australia. He then swore in Edmund Barton as our first Prime Minister.
