Ask HN: How do you mitigate healthcare wiping out all your hard work?

I'm worry that when I hit 50 I get very ill with some bullshit like cancer and I have to sell my home, and liquidate all my savings to survive it.

What are you doing to mitigate this risk?

I would probably 86 myself before putting my family through that. Imagine all that strife and hard work and long hours, for what?

I don't know just planning ahead.

Should I move to a country with socialized healthcare? Will the USA ever change in this regard?

Tax me, but don't fleece me when I get sick as well and force me to buy expensive insurance.
