Boost your retirement income with a health savings account
Many people see their HSA only as a way to pay for qualified medical expenses, such as doctor visits or prescriptions. But it can also be a long-term investment vehicle that can play an even greater role in your overall wealth and retirement strategy:
- You can use your HSA with other retirement accounts to maximize your after-tax retirement income.
- Saving in an HSA for retirement gives you a tax-advantaged account dedicated to future medical expenses.
- That means you won’t have to dip into other accounts intended for cost-of-living expenses.
There is no “use-it-or-lose-it rule.” The money in your health savings account is yours, even if you change jobs or retire.
