According to the Labor Department, the U.S. economy had 1.8 million more workers in 2006, and 43% of them were over the age of 55 with more than 50% of them women! This is due to the rising costs of medical expenses, and little or no retirement savings. We make enough money to pay our day-to-day expenses but never plan enough to cover those emergencies or our future. We cannot control the rising costs of medical care, but if we start saving today, we can grow our savings to assist us in paying the higher costs of medical care and enhance our financial future. An HSA (health savings account) could also help us offset expenses and thanks to the tax deferral of this account, we can grow our net worth through an HSA.
