Surgent's Maximizing Health Savings Accounts for Retirement Planning (2 hours)
-
Online
2.0 Credits
Member Price: $119

Health savings accounts (HSAs) offer unique tax advantages that make them well-suited as a supplement to traditional retirement planning. HSAs are actually more tax efficient than traditional retirement plans (401(k) plans, IRAs, etc.), making them the best way to plan for future health care expenses in retirement. Many Americans assume that Medicare is free and will cover all their health care expenses in retirement, but interactions between Social Security and Medicare can create additional challenges. In this two-hour program, we will provide insights into how to leverage the tax advantages of HSAs to plan for health care expenses in retirement.

Starting and owning a small business remains one of the most powerful ways to build long-term wealth, alongside investing and real estate ownership.

Entrepreneurs must navigate rapid technological change, artificial intelligence, shifting workforce expectations, evolving regulatory frameworks, fluctuating capital markets, and increased federal and state scrutiny in areas such as non-compete agreements, data privacy, and employment law. Every large business begins as a small business, yet the risks and complexities of launching and scaling a company have increased. Owners and their advisors must address critical issues including selecting the proper entity, liability protection, financing, intellectual property protection, employment contracts, noncompete, insurance coverage, operations, and technology adoption. Decisions made at formation can materially affect a company's long-term value and ability to grow and ultimately sell. This course provides a practical, up-to-date overview of the legal, financial, and strategic considerations that business owners and their professional advisors must evaluate in today's environment.
