Proceed cautiously: adulthood ahead.

Today I opened up a HSA.

That's grown-up slang for a health savings account.

I have a health savings account.

*Hangs head in utter shame*

I have something similar. Well, really it's just a sock I put loose change into until it is full, then I can usually get a nice six pack of malt liquor. It's my Mental Health Savings Account.

Why in the hell would you do something like that?!?!?!? Sheesh! You preggers?

I have my MHS in a Tangueray tin. And it's full! Whoopee!

Um...I have a piggy-bank. Does that count?

What is an HSA?

Jamie said...

Me- Why didn't I just take that money and get my damn pink iPod? Argh!

The RHS- I'd take Sapphire over Tangueray any day of the week. Matter of fact I'd take Sapphire any day of the week. :)

Ryan- Oh please. You're so 1994.

Robin- They take money out of your paycheck pretax and put it into a SA designated just for medical expenses. They'll never tax the account. And, unlike an FSA, your money doesn't disappear after the fiscal year is over.

After last weekend, I figured I'd better have one just in case...

Robin said...

Ahhhh... I get it. I have an FSA.

You're so responsible.

Saphire is alright. Tanqueray Ten is good, but my all time favorite, FAVORITE, is Oso Negro. Unfortunately, I have to have it smuggled to me from Mexico. Fortunately, it's cheaper than shit and drinks like ambrosia.

You know, it's a short walk from here to regular grocery shopping, daily flossing, and balancing your checkbook. If you're not careful, we'll see you in sensible shoes and carrying a planner.

No, wait, that's me...

(Yes, I have an HSA, why do you ask?)
