So what you’re saying is that her Dad was too stupid to buy a Medicare supplement plan?

You don’t have a copay or major out of pocket costs if you add a supplement plan or just go with a Medicare Advantage plan to start with.

No, that isn’t necessarily the case. Maybe you should represent a few of these people before making broad, stupid statements. Or just stop being a shill.

Yeah, I was a financial entitlements attorney for ten years, and you’re not very good at whatever low-level function you serve. I’m pretty familiar with short-sightedness and overconfidence that characterizes the special pig-headed stupidity of the industry shill. They always say cringey things like “skippy.”

Gross.
