Not sure if it's a joke or real, but I do know of two couples who married more or less for health insurance. They were dating for some time but got married in part for the insurance. One got pregnant unexpectedly and didn't have insurance and the other started getting seizures and needed to stay on some form of insurance after her COBRA ran out.

Both are still together and they may have gotten married regardless. But did know they rushed it due to the heath insurance aspect.

Such a sacred institution marriage is.

I'm surprised that pregnancy isn't considered a pre-existing condition (honestly).

Pretty sure pregnancy is one of the few things by law that you aren't allowed to count as pre-existing.

No mention of the ancillary benefits, just health insurance ones. What man would go for that?

Maybe now I can finally find a wife!

Should just hook up with a gay guy and "marry".

I was saw one of her YouTube videos and she still is someone who is rather picky for someone who is 45, divorce, no income (or at least job), and 4 kids.
