If you’re young and just starting out in life or a ‘seasoned’ veteran, you have many things in common–one of which is the desire to assure your family is protected in case of emergency. That means insurance coverage…enough to cover you in the event of unexpected trouble. You can’t be too careful. Without insurance the first medical disaster will wipe you out, and it may take years to catch up. In order to protect yourself from possible financial ruin it’s advisable to make sure you’re covered in case of disaster. Of course, that’s not always possible, especially in this economy, and particularly if you’re recently married or out on your own for the first time. Money may be tight. You’ve saved a little for a rainy day, but you know it won’t be enough if something terrible happens. Is there a way to protect yourself and your family’s medical needs? Yes there is. It’s called a health savings account (HSA.)
