Tennisnut: You did get a return it was the value of the insurance coverage you paid for that gave you peace of mind and allowed you to leverage your income because you understood that loss of home or being sued you were protected.
Frankly consideration yourself fortunate that you did not need to use your auto or homeowners.

I keep reading were people brag that they got more out of medicare then they paid in. Well nothing is free and if the premium pys can't support the benefits going out something has to give. Add fraud and abuse to the legitimate catastrophic health care losses and you can see insolvency in the future....nothing is free
