> I'd gladly pay $7/gallon for gas not to have to worry about healthcare (even if you have insurance, it will often fail you at the worst time) or, in the future should I have kids, education costs.
I wonder if there are arbitrage opportunities for the education of the children. You live in the US but you have your kids study in Europe - French universities for example are free, so if the kids can speak French it will be cheaper to have them study there, and as Americans their chances of admissions must be pretty high.
Except that French universities are crap, because they aren't allowed to select and have tiny budgets (due to being free). So the real education happens at the Grande Ecoles, which are either very hard to get into (STEM) or very expensive (Business). And in fact a lot of French parents are willing to pay for a UK or US education (usually if the kids are good but not quite good enough to go to an elite French college)
