Exactly, I worked at a Fortune 500 tech company and family coverage for COBRA was close to $2000/month. Many employers pay 80%+ of the share, and suddenly taking that all on yourself can be extremely onerous.

Same. Not just $2000, but 2000 for what was an extension of my otherwise mediocre work plan.
