hi I'm Tripp I have a blog retired guy usa.com hope you a visit there I blog
about retirement and and also personal finance than anything else that comes to
mind I do these videos just in polycast i'm
not trying to make any money it's just a hobby that i do and maybe it'll help
somebody so somehow we'll have a coal this is the first coldest water that
I've had in in years the first time I've been sick in several years so I feel
kind of weird I got some nice medicine here but I'm not complaining about it
because after all it's not cancer it's not on some kind of terrible illness so
I'm waking up today and even though without any sleep at all hardly I'm
better off then then a lot of people are who were waking up maybe this would be
the last day of their life so then you might got all these uh I got four
different medicines here so I don't know which ones to get always ask and be kind
of prioritized and which of the ones that really help you to get well as
opposed to which ones just make you kind of feel better or you know treat the
symptoms I prefer to to get well naturally but and the reason I asked to
be prioritized because of the cost you know we all know how much prescription
medicines cost and but for me it's not really so bad I have fairly decent
insurance and I have Medicare also now so like here's one and this is what this
room cost this is all about here's all the information yet for all
this medicine you know we've all seen this before this one the cash price is
supposed to be 60 $63.99 I paid three dollars and 79 cents is all for it this
is uh this one here is cash price is 1099 and I paid 77 cents you know may so
I'll just be free this cash price is $15.99 and I paid for 47 this cash price
is $36.99 I paid for 77 well so the real cash price of all this stuff is about a
hundred and thirty dollars for these four prescriptions and I paid only
fourteen dollars and some change I think about them ask the pharmacist one time
did people really pay the cash price like this one back here that's seventy
seven bucks or something and I paid when I paid $3 $4 for and she said yeah they
people really do pay the cash price so my heart just goes out to them I know
it's such an awful thing to have to choose between your medicine and maybe
the light bill or putting food on the table and of course you know Congress
has tried to address this and so many ways and there's dunno about the
politics of it I know there's a lot of greed and love the drug companies you
know they have a right to make money and they make a lot of money and of course
they don't make enough money they won't perform research so Who am I what do I
know just a just a guy out here is you know
trying to get by like everybody else is but meant to have it a little bit better
than a lot of people and you know I wake up every day and I'm very appreciative
for what I do have so also anything there's so much stuff
to read you know I mean look at all that who's going to read this is common uses
as before using this medicine how to use it
caution side effects some really miserable stuff there but to the lawyers
cover at all they cover every single possible thing so the companies can't be
sued if something goes wrong and that's that's the lawyers job that's what they
do so anyhow I'm not gonna talk too long I
know it sound fun you know half asleep and taking this medicine too so I just
wanted to reflect on pharmaceuticals a little bit in thanks for watching and
please subscribe and check out my blog and help you stay healthy and chat later
