Underground techno parties. Lots of cool people.

Like the whole stress of needing to pay anything if needing medical help… If I would avoid that, it is worth even a bigger monthly pay.

Like, in Berlin I can just walk to a doctor, to a hospital or to a pharmacy, plug my insurance card to a machine and it is all settled. I never see any money changing hands, or at maximum 10 euros copay if getting expensive prescription drugs.

Completely removing the stress of having a huge bill suddenly is worth the money I put into the insurance every month.

Is it possible to get health insurance with no copay at all in the US? My insurance in Berlin is about 1500€ per month, for which my employer pays half. If I lose my job, the unemployment office pays it and the price drops to 100€. The same happens if my salary drops, because the insurance cost is a percentage from my salary.

But if I came to the US, what kind of insurance would I get with $1500 per month?

Old thinkpads let you to save 20 euros to get a TN film panel to your company laptop. Great for bean counters, awful screens to look at. Never buy these, always get an IPS screen.

One rule of thumb is to be really sure it doesn’t have a tn film screen. IPS at least and even those were really bad up until T490 etc. X1 series has better screens, but you cannot upgrade almost anything to those.
