Hello, Klara here. I should have probably put in my answer that I would not join a startup without healthcare. I was recently offered a job that I was seriously considering. The caveat was that I'd be paid as a contractor and they would pay me the extra money for me to buy my own healthcare.

Healthcare for my husband and I would be $700-1000 a month. If we had a child, it would be closer to $1500 a month. Husband works at an early startup and doesn't have healthcare. ($1500 * 12) / (1 - 0.4) = $30k of extra income I would need to break even.

I cannot just buy Aetna insurance (in NY) because they don't sell individual plans. I'm not convinced that my other choices are good coverage (Oscar, NYS MetroPlus, etc).

Someday, we'll start a family and I want the best coverage possible.

A) I see the tech industry shaping the future for the world. The world is comprised of a diverse group of people. How can a narrow group of people understand the needs of everyone?

B) There are a shortage of labor in tech
