Did you know that the median retail investor spends only six minutes researching a stock before buying it? Most of that time is spent staring at a price chart—often just the current day's movement. Nick compares the limited “research” many individual investors conduct to the extensive analysis performed by Henssler's research analysts.K.C. then takes a closer look at the “One Big Beautiful Bill” that passed the House of Representatives just hours before we recorded. We discuss the revised State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction cap, the increased Child Tax Credit, and the proposed tax break on tip income. While the bill's fate in the Senate remains uncertain, it appears that many of Trump's 2017 tax cuts may be extended.Last Friday, after the market closed, Moody's became the third major credit rating agency to downgrade the U.S. government's debt rating. The cut comes at a time when global confidence in U.S. debt is wavering, and Congress is debating a tax bill that could further increase the national debt. We examine what this downgrade means and whether it reflects actual investment risk.After the break, D.J. breaks down Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and explains why they're one of the most powerful tools for saving money—thanks to their unique triple tax benefit. While many people use HSAs to pay for health-care expenses as they arise, there are compelling advantages to covering those costs from other funds and allowing the HSA to accumulate, benefiting from tax-deferred growth over time.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

Top Five HSA Mistakes That Are Costing You Money and How to Avoid Them, #252

On the show today, I'm discussing something that could be a game-changer for your retirement savings: Health Savings Accounts, or HSAs. If you're on a high deductible health plan, you might be eligible for this unique, triple tax-free account, but are you making the most of it? I'm sharing the top five mistakes people make with their HSA accounts. If not avoided, those mistakes can cost you serious money and limit your financial options later in life. I'm covering everything from choosing the right HSA provider to maximizing your investments within the account, tracking expenses, and even strategizing for retirement healthcare needs. Plus, I'll give you actionable tips to avoid these common pitfalls and explain how an HSA can function as a powerful retirement savings tool. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00 HSAs offer triple tax benefits for qualified health costs. [06:17] Transfer your HSA to invest funds instead of letting them sit idle. [08:36] Use a bucketing strategy for investments and allocate funds based on risk and term. [13:24] Use an HSA to reimburse for long-term care insurance, COBRA costs, and Medicare Part B, D, and Advantage after age 65. [14:31] An HSA is suitable for tax-free withdrawals post-retirement. The Triple Tax Advantage of HSAs Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) have grown in popularity steadily due to their unique triple tax advantage: contributions are tax-deductible, earnings grow tax-deferred, and qualified withdrawals are tax-free. If you're enrolled in a high-deductible health plan (HDHP), you're likely eligible for an HSA, and maximizing this account could significantly boost your retirement planning. However, many account holders fail to capitalize on the full benefits. Let's explore the most common (and costly) mistakes people make with their HSAs, and the steps you can take to avoid them. 1. Sticking with a Poor HSA Provider Not all HSA providers are created equal. A “good” provider offers diverse sets of low-cost investment options, competitive yields on cash balances, a user-friendly platform, and minimal fees. Unfortunately, many people end up with accounts that lack investment choices or charge unnecessary fees, simply because their employer picked the provider. The good news? You can transfer your HSA balance to a more flexible institution like Fidelity or Charles Schwab without penalty, even while still employed. Doing so could unlock better investment potential and higher earnings on your cash, making it well worth investigating your current provider's offerings and considering a move if they fall short. 2. Not Investing Your HSA Money Surprisingly, many HSA owners leave their funds idle in low- or no-interest accounts, missing years of tax-free growth. If you don't plan to spend your HSA funds soon, consider using a “bucket” approach: keep enough in cash or a money market for your deductible, and invest the remainder in stock or bond funds for long-term growth. Since medical expenses are rarely incurred all at once, investing your surplus funds can help your account grow exponentially, harnessing the power of compounding. Review your provider's investment options and allocate your HSA funds according to your risk tolerance and time horizon. 3. Failing to Max Out Contributions Because HSAs offer unbeatable tax benefits, it's wise to contribute as much as possible. For 2025, contribution limits are $4,300 for individuals and $8,550 for families, including employee and employer contributions. If you're 55 or older, you can contribute an extra $1,000 as a “catch-up” contribution. If you're married and you and your spouse are over 55, each spouse can make their own catch-up contribution, but you'll need separate accounts. Remember, you have until the tax filing deadline to make contributions for the previous year, giving you ample opportunity to reach the maximum annual limit. 4. Treating Your HSA Like a Checking Account Many people promptly spend their HSA funds on current medical expenses, inadvertently missing a powerful savings opportunity. Instead, consider paying for qualified medical costs out-of-pocket and letting your HSA investments grow. As long as you keep records of those qualified expenses, you can reimburse yourself tax-free at any point in the future, even years later. This allows your HSA to function much like a “stealth IRA,” providing tax-free growth and withdrawals for medical needs in retirement, when such expenses are likely to be higher. 5. Neglecting to Track Qualified Expenses To take advantage of delayed reimbursement, it's crucial to maintain careful records of out-of-pocket medical expenditures. The IRS can require documentation during an audit, so scan or save receipts and keep a running log in a spreadsheet. Good record-keeping ensures that, when the time comes, you can confidently withdraw HSA funds tax-free to reimburse yourself or cover eligible costs like Medicare premiums, long-term care insurance, and more once you reach retirement age. Make Your HSA Work Harder for You Used strategically, an HSA can become one of your most valuable retirement planning tools. By carefully choosing your provider, investing wisely, maximizing contributions, delaying withdrawals, and tracking all qualified expenses, you can fully realize the triple tax benefits and enjoy greater financial security in retirement. Take a moment today to review your HSA practices, your future self will thank you.

Episode #548: Inside Solo Health Collective-Making Healthcare Accessible for Independent Business Owners

Welcome to HALO Talks! In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Tom Morrissey, founder of Solo Health Collective and a seasoned veteran in the health insurance world, to unpack the complex—and often misunderstood—landscape of healthcare for self-employed professionals. With a career spanning decades at Cigna and deep experience serving everyone from major corporations to solo entrepreneurs, Tom shares how he's dedicated his life to helping small business owners and solopreneurs access quality, affordable health coverage. Despite his success in the large-account space, Tom noticed an unmet need: Small and mid-sized businesses were often overlooked by health insurers and weren't given access to innovative cost-saving or health improvement solutions that benefited the bigger corporations.  If you're a personal trainer, group ex instructor, wellness coach, massage therapist, or any professional running your own business, this conversation is a game changer. Tom explains the differences between HMO and PPO plans, why traditional ACA ("Affordable Care Act") options can fall short for the self-employed, and how his company's unique group plan model is designed to deliver robust coverage (including preventive care and nationwide access) with transparent pricing and minimal out-of-pocket surprises. Plus, hear about partnerships with organizations like the Freelancers Union, and learn how innovative features like HSAs can work for you—even covering perks like fitness classes. On the healthcare issues facing entrepreneurs, Morrissey states, "We saw the growth. It depends on who you listen to, but estimates are that there'll be 90M solo business, owners by 2028. I want to say there's about 60M now. The guys and gals that own these businesses . . . I think, especially when they're young and healthy, are the ones that get screwed the most in healthcare. You know? All they really have access to is ACA plans." Key themes discussed Challenges of health insurance for solopreneurs and self-employed. Differences between PPO and HMO health plans. Underwriting and rate-setting for solo business owners. Preventive care coverage and HSA/HSA usage changes. Brand trust versus new insurance providers like Solo Health Collective. Partnerships with organizations such as Freelancers Union. Long-term cost sustainability for healthier insurance collectives. A few key takeaways:  1. Solo Health Plans Are Filling a Major Gap: Morrissey explains how traditional health insurance often overlooks solopreneurs and small business owners, especially in the HALO space. His company, Healthy Business Group via Solo Health Collective, is designed specifically to provide comprehensive PPO health plans to solo business owners—offering an alternative with more flexibility and better coverage than typical limited-network ACA and HMO options. 2. Key Plan Advantages-PPO Access and Maximum Out-of-Pocket Clarity: Unlike many ACA or HMO plans that limit provider networks and access, Solo Health Collective offers nationwide PPO plans, granting members broader access to healthcare providers. They also have a straightforward approach: After the deductible is met, there's no coinsurance—meaning your deductible is the absolute maximum you'll pay out-of-pocket for covered expenses (with all preventative care covered in full and not applied to the deductible). 3. Plans Are Designed for Solo Business Owners With Medical Underwriting: To qualify, you must have an EIN (Employer Identification Number) and be a business owner without employees. Members go through a quick, five-question medical underwriting process, which allows the plan to provide tailored age, and location-based rates—often significantly less expensive than standard individual policies, especially for young, healthy professionals. 4. HSAs and Innovative Usage for Wellness Are Embraced: The plan supports health savings accounts (HSAs), and Tom shared how, thanks to evolving IRS guidelines and technology, people can now use HSA funds for things like fitness classes and certain wellness purchases, expanding the value of pre-tax health dollars and encouraging preventive care and healthy lifestyles. 5. Long-Term Value and Stability Solo Health Collective is built on a self-insured, level-funded model supported by robust reinsurance (Odyssey A+ rated.) This allows the collective to stabilize costs and potentially keep renewal increases lower than the industry average—especially as it pools healthier, proactive members like those in the wellness and fitness industries. The long-term goal is to create a sustainable, affordable health insurance solution specifically for entrepreneurs who have historically been underserved.

Key Takeaways: Triple Tax Win! HSAs are awesome because you don't pay taxes when you put money in, let it grow, or take it out for medical expenses. That's like winning three times with one account! Covers More Than You Think You can use your HSA money for way more than just doctor visits. Need to make your bathroom safer or install ramps at home for medical reasons? That might count, too! Not All Insurance Plans Qualify Before opening an HSA, your health insurance has to be a high-deductible health plan. That just means you pay more out-of-pocket before insurance helps — and not every plan lets you use an HSA. Keep Your Receipts! If you use HSA money, you need proof it was for a real medical expense. That way, if the government ever checks, you're ready.

In part 2 of episode 469, host Stacey Richter discusses the implications of Medicare site neutral payments and Health Savings Account (HSA) reforms with James Gelfand, president and CEO of the ERISA Industry Committee (ERIC).  The episode details how plan sponsors should adapt to Medicare's site neutral payment policies aimed at curbing hospital consolidation and inflated prices through facility fees and markups. Gelfand provides insights into how HSA reforms currently in Congress could expand the scope of preventive care covered before deductibles are met, benefitting both employers and employees.  The conversation also touches on the challenges high deductible health plans pose and the potential benefits of codifying recent IRS guidance to allow greater flexibility in pre-deductible coverage. The discussion underscores the importance of plan sponsors staying ahead of Medicare policies to avoid higher costs. === LINKS ===

This week I'm answering a killer question from listener Adam Weber: “Should I change my health insurance plan just to gain access to an HSA—even if my current coverage is better?”   It's a loaded one, and in this episode, I break it all the way down: how HSAs work, what “high deductible health plans” really mean, when it makes sense to make the switch, and why the HSA might be the most powerful financial tool nobody's talking about.   Whether you're W-2, self-employed, or managing family health expenses, this is a must-listen if you want to optimize both your coverage and your long-term wealth.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:46 What is an HSA and how do you qualify? 02:44 W-2 vs. self-employed: setting up your HSA 04:24 Factors to consider before choosing an HSA 05:48 How to compare plans: premiums, deductibles & out-of-pocket max 06:23 High deductible health plans vs. traditional plans 08:47 Situations where switching to a high deductible plan makes sense 10:40 How your employer HSA works and why you can switch providers 12:31 The real purpose of an HSA 13:52 Pre-tax adjustment 15:11 Growing your investment interest and tax free 16:13 Tax-free withdrawals 18:37 Investing your money in the HSA 20:26 Tax-free medical reimbursements 22:15 Retirement benefit 24:10 Final verdict: When switching insurance for the HSA is worth it   Quotables   “The HSA is literally the best financial tool out there.

Episode 142. Empowering Your Financial Future: A Conversation with Laura Corbiani Welcome back to The Innovative Therapist Podcast! Today, we're diving into part two of my conversation with financial expert Laura Corbiani. If you missed part one, be sure to check it out, as we covered essential topics like money, power, and common mindset blocks around finances. This episode is all about tangible actions to become more financially empowered—because who doesn't need that? We'll discuss key topics like: Why and when you might want to hire a financial advisor Financial wellness basics How to build an emergency fund How to optimize your money to create more financial freedom Let's dive in! Overcoming Financial Anxiety Talking about money can be overwhelming. Many people feel like they need to know everything before they even start, leading to avoidance and anxiety. If you've ever felt this way, you're not alone. Financial concerns can exist even when someone is in a good financial position. The key is shifting from judgment to curiosity about your financial health. The Importance of an Emergency Fund One of the most crucial building blocks of financial wellness is an emergency fund. This is a cash cushion set aside in a savings account, separate from investments, to cover unexpected expenses. Here's a general guideline: Single-income households: Aim for six months of living expenses. Dual-income households: Aim for three months of living expenses. Keeping this money in a separate savings account (instead of a checking account) can help prevent accidental spending. Automating a small amount to transfer weekly or monthly can make building this fund easier. Maximizing Employer Benefits If you have access to employer benefits, it's important to take full advantage of them. Some key areas to explore include: Retirement Plans: Many employers offer 401(k) matching—be sure to contribute enough to get the full match! Disability and Life Insurance: These benefits are often overlooked but can provide essential financial security. Health Savings Accounts (HSA): If you're on a high-deductible health plan, contributing to an HSA is a great way to save for medical expenses tax-free. Unlike Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), HSAs don't have a “use it or lose it” policy, allowing you to save for future healthcare costs—even in retirement. The Power of Investing Investing can feel intimidating, but it doesn't have to be complicated. Target-date funds are a great place to start—they adjust risk levels based on your projected retirement year. Investing consistently, even in small amounts, can lead to long-term financial security. The Gender Pay Gap & Negotiation One of the biggest financial challenges women face is negotiating for higher pay. Research shows that women tend to apply for jobs only when they meet 100% of the qualifications, whereas men apply when they meet about 60%. Additionally, women negotiate their salaries less frequently, which can lead to earning significantly less over their careers. A few key takeaways: Ask for what you're worth: Negotiating your salary can add up to over $1 million in additional lifetime earnings. Be creative: If salary negotiations are limited, consider negotiating for more time off, professional development funding, or other benefits. When to Hire a Financial Advisor Not everyone needs a financial advisor, but here are some situations where hiring one might be beneficial: You're juggling multiple income sources or investments. You're going through a major life transition (inheritance, job change, starting a business, etc.). You want expert guidance on optimizing your financial strategy. When choosing an advisor, ask if they are a fiduciary, meaning they are legally required to act in your best interest. You can also ask, “How do you get paid?” to understand whether they work on commission, a flat fee,
