I've remarked elsewhere that I'm not convinced of the value of discussing specific numeric values for these things, but because I'm a helpful chap here are mine.
For a lot of these, my actual answer is "Not interested until I have more money than I ever expect to have, not only because I don't see how I'd get it but because if I did then I would regard it as indecent not to give most of it away".
Health Insurance: Shouldn't insurance go down as you get richer, since you'll be more able to absorb risk? I suppose you might want more health coverage, but you'd also have a higher deductible so it's not clear if it would be more expensive. Doesn't your work usually pay for health insurance though? I was under the impression that they had to do stuff like that to avoid the problem of only high-risk people getting health insurance.
