    Assuming you’re being serious and just are either extraordinarily sheltered or extraordinarily lucky:

    Speaking strictly from a US perspective, medical costs are typically extremely high even for basic things. Hell one time I had a 2nd degree burn on my hand, went to the Emergency Room, all they did was put ointment on it and bandage it up and it cost me almost $1000.

    And that’s extremely CHEAP compared to what a lot of people have to deal with. Don’t even ask about what diabetic people have to pay up.

        Eh, in some ways. No country is a monolith, and there are benefits. But financially unless you’re in the top 1%, it’s likely gonna be a hard life for you.
