How much weight do you put in 401k and health care in reviewing offers? Is it as simple as calculating how much you would pay for Healthcare and how much 401k matching is there and sum it all up and compare the monetary value? Or there's more to it?

This is categorically correct. I think what you’re asking about is the underlying assumptions. Make sure to include things like the unvested contributions in your current account and double check which tier your prescriptions fall in.

Yes, I'd also check to see what type of insurance carrier they have and whether my provider is in network, etc. Also checking to see if they have coverage for any major cost procedures I might anticipate within the next year or so.

The older I get the more I value these
