It’s true! That’s the super surprising news in a great new article from one of my favorite sites, LearnVest today.
Apple’s cash reserve is about $76.2 billion. And while Congress stalled over the debt debate, the nation’s total operating balance was confined to $73.8 billion.
The comparison isn’t exactly apples to apples (pun intended), but the fact remains that the technology company is holding more cash than the entire government of the world’s largest economy.
You can read the rest of the article, and learn how other big companies compare, by visiting Learnvest today.

No Health Insurance?
If you’re like me, and are without health insurance, here are some great resources, coupons, freebies, and more. I hope that some of you guys can find some money-saving help here!
Or, if you have a family member or friend who can use this help, pass it on, or sign them up. Medical costs are so hard to afford these days, every little bit of savings counts.
Free Resources:
Get this Free Prescription Discount Card to get savings of up to 75% on needed med’s. Click Here to sign up. All you do is enter your basic info, and then print off a form. Bring that form to your pharmacy, and they’ll keep it on file. The next time you needs med’s, you’ll get the discounts if it’s on the list. Very simple, and can be really helpful.
You can also sign up for this Free Pharmacy Card too. With both, you should be able to find just about any medicine that you need on one of their lists. We don’t use these a lot, but when I’ve needed prescriptions, these help us out so much! This one works just the same as the above.
Get a FREE sample of Prilosec. If you suffer from heartburn, you know how darn expensive it is to buy Prilosec! I watch for new free sample links, and request them as often as possible, to stock up for my boyfriend.
No health insurance? Taking prescription drugs? Print a free prescription coupon and save up to 75% on your next trip to the pharmacy. Click Here, type in the med you take, and it’ll show you if there is a coupon to print. Easy peasy savings.
This is a really amazing opportunity if you live in an area that qualifies. {Unfortunately, we don’t. Which is a huge bummer, since I have horrible allergies, and could really use some help, but can’t afford my seasonal doctor appt’s anymore.} Check it out, see if you qualify, and get your appointments and med’s free, plus get paid for participating!

See if Lasik is right for you with this Free 30 second Lasik evaluation. Discount information available if you qualify. Click Here to see if you qualify for this.
If you suffer from acne or other skin problems, and can’t afford a dermatologist, try out Proactiv. This is a great time, since there are some valuable freebies you can access.
I hope this helps some of you!
Is anyone else reading this without health insurance too? It’s such a scary feeling… And it’s only the second time in my whole life I’ve gone without it! We try to eat healthy, exercise, and take vitamins… While stocking up on any medical freebies or coupons that I can get. Do you have any tips for saving on medical expenses? I’d love to hear them in the comments….
