HSA Hacks for Couples: A Game-Changer in Retirement Planning

Welcome back to CoastFI Couple! In today’s episode, we’re tackling a powerful (but often overlooked) financial tool: the Health Savings Account (HSA). Did you know that a whopping 92% of people using HSAs are leaving free money on the table? That’s a ton of untapped potential just waiting to be unlocked! Join hosts Yana and Matt as they break down how to fully take advantage of these accounts to supercharge both your healthcare spending and retirement savings.

We’ll dive into the triple tax advantages of HSAs, explain how they stack up against Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), and share some savvy strategies for maximizing your HSA contributions. Whether you're just starting your financial journey or you're guiding adult children, this episode is packed with actionable tips for everyone! We’ll also talk about the perks of paying out-of-pocket to let your HSA grow tax-free, the importance of logging medical expenses, and why tracking your receipts is key to unlocking the full potential of your HSA.

So, buckle up and get ready for a fun, informative ride toward financial independence with the CoastFI Couple!
