Hmm, not sure if I agree with that study completely, as far as I know Discovery Health in their "Coastal" plans are bargaining on people in coastal areas living longer with less health problems, hence the lower premiums?

I KNOW that the money is better up there though, cannot dispute that, but hell is it worth LIVING there

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought it was the hospitals that are cheaper?
