Today is HSA Day! 💙 An HSA (Health Savings Account) can be more than a way to pay today's medical bills.

For eligible individuals, a Health Savings Account offers unique tax advantages that can make it a valuable part of a broader financial strategy.

HSAs can offer:

‣ Tax-deductible or pre-tax contributions
‣ Tax-deferred growth
‣ Tax-free withdrawals when used for qualified medical expenses

And unlike a Flexible Spending Account, unused HSA funds can generally remain in the account from year to year, giving them the potential to help with healthcare expenses later in life.

How you use an HSA depends on your healthcare needs and overall financial situation, but it may be worth considering its role beyond this year's medical expenses.

💰 Happy National Savings Day!

Saving isn't necessarily about giving up every little thing you enjoy. That $5 coffee isn't automatically the problem. What matters more is understanding your overall spending habits and consistently setting aside money for the things that matter to you.

Whether you're building an emergency fund, preparing for a large purchase, saving for retirement, or working toward another goal, a few questions can help:

‣ How much am I saving consistently?
‣ Is my money in the right type of account for my timeline?
‣ Could I automate more of my savings?
‣ Have my goals changed since I created my strategy?

Small, consistent decisions can make a meaningful difference over time. 📈

Today is World Mental Health Day. 💚

Mental well-being is an important part of our overall health, and today is an opportunity to recognize the importance of caring for ourselves and checking in on the people around us.

Sometimes a simple conversation, a moment to listen, or reaching out to someone can make a meaningful difference.

Take care of yourself and one another today and every day.

What happens when you reinvest your dividends?

When an investment pays a dividend, you may have the option to take that payment as cash or use it to purchase additional shares of the investment.

When dividends are reinvested, those additional shares have the potential to generate their own future returns and dividends. Over a long investment horizon, that reinvestment can contribute to the power of compounding.

It may seem like a small decision each time a dividend is paid, but investing is often about what those small decisions can add up to over many years.

According to data from Morningstar and Hartford Funds, $10,000 invested in the S&P 500 in 1960 would have grown to approximately $7.58 million by the end of 2025 with dividends reinvested, compared with approximately $1.14 million from price appreciation alone.

Whether reinvesting dividends makes sense depends on your goals, income needs, tax situation, and overall investment strategy.

Not sure whether or how to reinvest your dividends? Give us a call. We can help you understand your options and how they may fit into your overall investment strategy. 📈

Have you heard about Trump Accounts for children? 💰 🚸

Trump Accounts are a new type of individual retirement account created for eligible children, providing families with another option for long-term saving and investing.

Accounts are available for eligible children under age 18 with a valid Social Security number. Certain U.S. citizen children born between 2025 and 2028 may also be eligible for a one-time $1,000 contribution from the U.S. Treasury.

Depending on eligibility and applicable rules, contributions may also come from parents and family members, employers, charitable organizations, and government entities.

As with any new financial account, it's important to understand the eligibility requirements, contribution rules, investment options, and how the account may fit into your family's broader financial plan.

Have questions about planning for the next generation? Our team would be happy to help. 💙

🍁 Term to Know: Tax-Loss Harvesting

As the year progresses, investors often begin reviewing their portfolios for opportunities to improve tax efficiency. One strategy you may hear about is **tax-loss harvesting**.

Tax-loss harvesting involves selling certain investments at a loss to help offset taxable investment gains. While it can be a useful planning strategy in the right circumstances, it isn't appropriate for everyone and should be considered as part of an overall financial plan.

Like many financial decisions, timing and your individual situation matter.

If you'd like to learn more about tax-efficient investing and whether strategies like tax-loss harvesting may fit into your financial plan, we're here to help. 💙
