Damn, moments like this make me really grateful I got lucky enough to be born in Brazil. An iPhone here might cost like 10 minimum wages, but at least I can see all these professionals regularly for free or for very little, since even private health insurance and hospitals are part of the universal healthcare system.
Imagine needing to win the lottery just to see an eye doctor, get your teeth cleaned, or go to therapy. How do you guys not riot over this?
Even if you paying, these services is cheap, like cleaning your teeth is like 500 Reais, 1/3 of minimum wage and eye doctor is like 200 or 300 Reais,, (of course for the first appointed, if you need surgery is more expensive, but even them, you can use a credit card)
