I did, it's cheaper. Personal insurance would for me would go from about $680/mo to $214.55 starting in 2014. My current employer plan would go from about $520/mo down to $214.55. (hint, most companies already subsidize your insurance premium, what you pay out of pocket is usually <50%).

My wife's drops from ~$750/mo (employer provided) to $222.92.

But neither of us has to buy it through the exchanges because our employers already provide it. Mine covers 100% and my wife's covers about 70% of her premium.

My mother on the other hand will go down from either completely ineligible (pre-existing conditions) or $2200/mo to <$406.95/mo.
