<prompt> Human: I am a 25 year old MBA student about to turn 26 U.S. citizen, which means Ill need to start paying for my own health insurance.I know that companies usually provide health insurance, but alas I am unemployed and have not found any company willing to hire me for some reason. Ive interviewed with about 6-7 different companies since September Walmart, American Airlines, Aramark, Republic Services...etc etc. Sometimes have gone on to final round interviews but no dice.I turn 26 in April graduate in May, what are my options with no income when it comes to health insurance in the U.S.? Will I be fined? What do I need to know?Any help is appreciated!EDIT: I currently have no leads when it comes to employment, as of today. No prospects on the horizon.  <response>: If you want health insurance, you can sign up via healthcare.gov If you dont want it and want to wait until you get a job, you can either get out of paying a penalty if you have a short term of not having insurance 2 months, or just pay the penalty. Also, keep in mind that you can opt out of the penalty for a number of reasons low income, life events, etc.
