One of the biggest hidden gems 💎 in the investing game is a...

Health Savings Account 💰💰

Also known as a “HSA”

Whether you have one or not, I suggest you to read further.

Here is everything you need to know.

A thread:
HSAs are tax-advantaged member-owned accounts that let you save pre-tax dollars for future qualified medical expenses.

You can invest within your HSAs.

And funds never expire! 👍🏼

Health Savings Accounts empower you to save more, spend smarter and invest in your healthcare.
First things first...

A HSA provides a TRIPLE TAX SAVINGS‼️

This means:

1️⃣ Contributions are tax free

2️⃣ Investment Earnings are tax free

3️⃣ Qualified medical expenses are tax free
And the best thing yet...

The Retirement hack‼️

If you pay out of pocket for qualified medical expenses & save your receipts (which they have a spot to upload those),

You are able to withdraw up to the amount in receipts during retirement 🤯

This is what I do personally 🤤
The only requirement:

You are a part of a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP).

All HSAs are different and have their unique characteristics.

Just like one bank may offer better benefits than the next.

But the best one on the market yet...

@firstdollarinc is the first HSA to have a prescription discount network inscribed in the back of their debit card...

Which can save you money on your prescriptions. 🤑

If you have an existing HSA...

You can open another. 😃

Just like you can have multiple 401ks.

If your employer has provided you with a HSA, you can still open a new HSA.

I had to explain this one to my wife recently when we switched over 😂
With open enrollment in full force,

Now is the time to make the move!
