One should mention their country of residence. In my case (Greece, 2005, during the golden days), if I had no money saved, my only option would be amputation instead of a titanium rod implant where my femur used to be.
I'm in my early 30s, and up until last year never needed any sort of real medical treatment my entire life. Then I got I to a bike accident, fractured my tibia, almost needed surgery, and was damn glad that I did have health insurance. I could've just as easily not broken my ankle, or it could've been way, way worse. But I don't judge the value of insurance based on whether I happened to need it any given year; that's just dominated by chance.
