If that $3k were paying a mortgage debt, it would be servicing more than $600,000!
Sadly, $600K is nothing in healthcare costs, at least retail price. A snake bite can cost $153K https://www.cnbc.com/2015/07/21/hospital-appears-to-charge-1... https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rattlesnake-selfie-results-in-a...
