$5,000 For A New Knee; $400,000 For Literally Nothing August 16, 2019August 15, 2019 Following up on Wednesday’s going abroad for medical care . . . this Mississippi woman got paid $5,000 to have her knee replaced. By a Mayo-trained Milwaukee surgeon. Both flown all expenses paid to Cancun because the hospital is so much cheaper there. Her employer saved more than half what it would have cost to do in the U.S. (Thanks, Brian!) This really sensible sounding woman — you will relate to her — lost $400,000 over a long period of time, fully knowing that she was gambling WITH NO CHANCE TO WIN, yet unable to stop. It’s quite a story and begins about 17:26 minutes into the podcast. Have a great weekend.
