subject: Getting Your Prescription Drug Card [print this page] When one surveys their life, they will realize that it has taken a great deal of planning to move on into later ages, with more minimal planning early on, and more complicated planning growing up. When we are young, everything is laid out before us free of most complications. One gets a job, and one pays for what they want, not necessarily what they have to. Teenagers are not caught up in loop holes as much as adults are. For instance, at age sixteen, chances are the biggest investment one might face is buying a cheaper car, or paying for car insurance. After that, all there really is are the costs of gasoline and oil changes. Those aside, one puts their money into buying concert tickets, or movie tickets, or going out to dinner with friends. Their budget turns to leisure purchases or more fun events. As one hits an age of eighteen, in many cases, they will be entering college. In doing so, one may find they are at a new level, a new phase in their life, which may entail taking out loans in order to cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. In this case, one will discover that most of these loans come with painful interest rates that will force one to pay close to twice the amount they first took out just to pay for school. However, this burden, when put aside during college years, will result in one working much for the same leisure activities with the threat of loans lurking. By the time one is an adult with a more adult job, they are paying back their loans, and they are still putting expenses toward a car, but they are often paying for a lot more in terms of where they are living. By putting money into a house or an apartment, one faces a whole new set of costs they never even dreamed about. Aside from rent and mortgage payments, one has to pay for insurance to cover them in case of theft or disaster, this insurance on top of health and car. They also have to pay for all the bills around, such as electricity and water, this on top of actual food or furniture to use in your dwelling. Well, by the time one has made it into old age, they are still paying, but in forms of new hidden costs, such as prescription drugs. In order to knock this hidden cost a little so late in life, one needs a prescription drug card.
