Climb to Superior Health Or Fall "Gracefully" Into Disease

I drove a 1972 Ford Pinto to high school. I kept it clean and waxed but I thought I was too busy to check the oil. I let it run low, and caused some serious damage to the engine and found myself with a car that would not run at all. I bought a repair book, went to the junkyard and took the a head from a wrecked Pinto and then rebuilt the engine on my car.During the three days and most of a night that it took for me to repair that engine, I could not drive it at all.After I rebuilt that engine, and understood more about how it worked, then I used an old-fashioned timing light and other tools to keep it running at optimum speed.

If you've just lost your group health coverage through work, just got notice that your health insurance premiums are going up again, or just wish you had some control over your health care, a health savings account (an HSA) may be just what you need. An HSA offers independence from employer-based coverage, options to keep premiums low and gives you more choice in how you manage your health care expenses.HSA Plans combine high-deductible health insurance policies with tax-advantaged savings accounts. While you're in relatively good health, high-deductible plans may fulfill all your coverage needs because plans purchased after March 2010 cover regular preventive services even before you've met the deductible. For example, flu shots, a yearly checkup, and looking for dangerous conditions like certain cancers, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc., are all covered even though plans with high deductibles cost less than full-coverage policies.If you do need to pay for services...
