    I got struck by a car while I was still a young college student and had no health insurance (this was before children could stay on their parents’ health insurance until they reach 26).

    One of my parents is poor and the other is just a step above it, so medical bills went unpaid.

    I had the joy of starting my adult life in debt, with bad credit, during the Great Recession.
