HSAs Are Powerful Tax-Saving Tools

An underappreciated way to save on taxes is the health savings account (HSA).

This is a Charles Sizemore original. I call an HSA a “spillover IRA.”

Why do I call it that? If you've already maxed out your IRA, your 401(k), all of your usual alphabet soup of retirement accounts, and you still want to put more money away to get that tax break, the HSA is a solid option.

HSAs and IRAs are not interchangeable. But depending on how you structure it and how you use it, you can make an HSA a de facto IRA.

Let’s consider the rules.

When you put money into an IRA, you can't touch it without taking a penalty until you are age 59 and a half.

The HSA is different.

If you put money into an HSA, you can take it out tomorrow for health expenses. Use it for any purpose other than health expenses, and you’ll pay a penalty and taxes.

The exception is if you wait until you're at least 65.

Why not 59 and a half like the IRA?

Once you qualify for Medicare, you don't need the HSA anymore. So the IRS allows you to just take the money out like you would an IRA.

At the end of the day, if you want to get as much money out of the taxman's hands as possible, an HSA is a solid option.

[Note: You can still contribute to an HSA for tax year 2021 until April 18, 2022.]
