If I hadn't saved, I probably would be dead right now. The US doesn't really do healthcare or mental care, and I no longer can sustain myself. Long COVID is a bitch and doctors usually ignore it.
But if you're banking on never having an emergency, go for it. There's a balance to hit, at least in less developed countries like the US.
