but why does he speak greek?

Hubby and I are doing oki, but we are not very well to do. We started out with very limited funds and just a mattress on the floor and have slowly bought things and upgraded as we could afford it. We even manage to put away a fair bit of savings.

Now since we are doing better we figured we needed to look into insurance. We just could not afford it first and then we just keep putting it of. We have public health care so we are fine for basic medical stuff, but if we ever need to go to a dentist or if we wanted to get our eyes checked out we have to pay out big bucks.

So we ave been trying to look into private health insurance. We did some research on the internet, but could not quiet figure out what would be the best option for us. We sent an email for an consultant to call us and hoping that person would be able to explain things better. The insurance person did call and I happen to pick up. He spoke english alright but this 'insurance language' is so difficult that he could just s well have spoken Greek. He went on a long explanation and after he finished he asked me what I wanted and all I could say was ' eeh what?'

I handed the phone over to hubby and he seem to understand a bit more, but in the end told the guy we needed to think about it .

So yeah that's what we are doing now.. thinking about it. And praying that we will understand this 'language' before we have a dental emergency
