Just started using a Fidelity brokerage account as our primary "checking" without losing any features, with a Fidelity business account to hold our excess cash and non-retirement investments. Total game changer! Getting paid to hold our cash as opposed to letting it rot in a bank checking account is incredible. You're always out here giving the best advice, Toby!
Are they invested in stocks or are they just paying a flat rate to keep it in there? If stocks, do you have to make a million trades each month buying and selling to manage money in, and money out?

This was very interesting and educational. I wasn’t sure if a HSA was useful for me because I felt like what if if I don’t ever use it? The money is wasted. Knowing it can be rolled over into something else is good. I’m going to look into that more since I already have a Roth IRA. Thank you
Hi I’m already retired and have a deferred comp acct. I’m getting very nervous with today’s happenings and was wondering if it would be smart or not to withdraw at least half my money and put in my credit union or invest some?
Would love to have an HSA but the “low deductible health care plan” is like a grand a month for me and my family and absolutely prices us right out of ever possibly opening an HSA. The prices of health care coverage in America are a complete joke. We use health share instead and do DPC for small stuff.
First off - thank you for your service. I do not think Tricare qualifies as a high deductible plan, so I do not believe you will be able to contribute to an HSA. You might want to see if there are exceptions, but I am fairly certain. Sorry friend.
We're in unchartered waters here ...... 15 year past history average investment gains may no longer be a dependable gauge. $35+Trillion DEBT may torpedo most dreams. Hyperinflation may destroy $USD Fiat in short period of time completely devastating investment accounts. Massive DEBT is the elephant in the room that most people are ignoring.

To clarify: It is not possible to convert a Health Savings Account (HSA) to a Roth IRA after age 65, but you can use your HSA funds for retirement in other ways: Withdraw funds Once you turn 65, you can withdraw money from your HSA for any reason, but you'll need to pay ordinary income taxes on withdrawals that aren't used for qualified medical expenses. This is similar to how withdrawals from traditional IRAs are treated after age 59.5 This piece of misinformation severely hurts this guy’s credibility
My Roth hack - I fund my Roth 403b monthly but not my Roth IRA. I add up my receipts at the end of the year, take withdrawals equal to the amount of my receipts, and put it into my Roth IRA. Money going into my Roth IRA is now triple threat and I have do not need to keep receipts forever and have access to all the money at 59.5.
You mention contribution limits when talking about Roth accounts, but not when talking about traditional accounts. Why was that? The deductible to be eligible for HSA contributions is 1600 currently, but you say 1800 and 1600 within a minute (around 17:25 and 18:20). You also say you can convert an HSA to Roth if you don't have medical expenses- not true. If you withdraw for non-medical expenses beyond a certain age, you still have to pay taxes on your withdrawals, so it's more like converting to a traditional. Enjoyed the cadence and structure of your video while making breakfast.
I can understand practical advice but don't tell me how to do your job. I plan on hiring someone in tax and asset protection. They will work for me and I don't have to know how to do their job.

Fidelity's cash back credit card is also pretty good. I keep everything but the cash to go for 2 weeks in my Fidelity account.

Thank you for being direct and to the point. I got all the info I wanted and needed without a bunch of fluff and nonsense.

Thank you. This is very timely and helpful to me and my family.
Awesome to hear that it was helpful for you and your fam!
If you have an IRA or 401K and specify your distribution in your will, what tax rate does your estate pay when you pass away?
If child support and alimony have no limits, investment accounts shouldn't either! Sorry, sore spot for me.
Several states have set limits on that. It's a state to state issue.
Thank you
Can retirees put money into HSA? If so, what are the qualifications rules? Thanks

ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE
Really???
Very clear explanations. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
TH-cam Silenced the volume on this video for me.
You fail to mention that many companies do a 401k/IRA match of your contribution ...
Most people miss having life insurance also. Its the most unregulated account to have.

If you invest in a traditional accout and defer the tax, that doesnt give you a 22% return. You have to pay it back with interest later.
Excellent topic Brother
I don't see any advantage for having an HSA if you are a veteran (retiree) ... not paying much when I go to the VA
17:20 I'm retired military on Tricare, can I still benefit from HSA?
First off - thank you for your service. I do not think Tricare qualifies as a high deductible plan, so I do not believe you will be able to contribute to an HSA. You might want to see if there are exceptions, but I am fairly certain. Sorry friend.

Update on the SEP Roth?
Dang Toby, looking good sir. Thanks for the advice.
thanks for watching =)
Thanks
Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Do you have a dedicated HSA Video? The idea of a reimbursement is confusing.
This video might help =) th-cam.com/video/QYLPBO6iNMQ/w-d-xo.html
At what age can you convert it into a Roth ?
If you don't live to that age what happens to the account?
Thank you. Last one is really good
Glad you liked it
Every thing you mention has counterparty risk
Excellent
401K's can become a liability if you lose a spouse and end up in a higher tax bracket.
Da man right here

So, yes to paying off the mtg? I’m in the same situation.
Pay off your mortgage but consider ways to protect your house from deed theft.

Health savings account? 😅 Damn that's so American
He spent 20 minutes saying two minutes of information
I prefer crypto and real estate only, I'm not interested in stocks
Best of luck with your investing journey

Before he can go to work for you, he has to show you how knowledgeable he is, so you will trust him.
