I've been reading this site for a long time and have greatly benefited from the great advice here - thanks to you all.
I'm 46 and wife is 48 and we live in New York. We have 2 kids in middle school. My wife was laid off from her job 2 years ago and lately I have had that funny feeling that I may be getting the ax.
The good news is that I have been doing a ton of research on ER and I think we are close to having the resources needed.
If I lose my job, the only income we would have coming in would be about $10,000 a year in interest and dividends. From what I have been reading, it seems that we would qualify for a healthcare program in NY called Family Health Plus. It seems to cover everything our current health care covers for only the cost of co-pays.
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this program or other suggestions.
Thanks.
