    1. Buy shares in health insurer

    2. Get claim denied

    3. Sell shares

    4. Pay medical bills and watch the share price drop for added schadenfreude

      Step 0. Have enough money to buy enough shares to pay your medical bills? 😬

        Man, I thought I was alone.

        This thing drags behind me like a tail. I could donate multiple penises to multiple innie dicks and I could still use mine as a lasso.
