The information is helpful and interesting as far as health is concerned. I'm trying to find financial and healthcare information for long term survivors. For example, what do I do for healthcare insurance coverage when I retire? I can't afford to pay for health care and prescriptions without insurance. Do I really have to work at my crappy job until the day I die just for health care and prescription insurance?
