We have covered cool or interesting stories that are interested in maybe intrigued to you in the business or entrepreneur space. So if you're interested, stay tuned. My guest today is Mr. Zachary Wilson. We've had him on on another episode, go check out that interview. If you missed it, go check it out. But Mr. Zack Wilson is from Quest Ira they do. They do self directed IRAs and other type of Ira products to help you invest. So what's your second story you have? Because the first one was good. If you missed the first one. Don't check it out, 0:35 man. It's a treasure hunt involved. It's all gonna sell. It's all I'm gonna say on it. Okay. So this one is I wanted to tell story kind of how someone leveraged an HSA to make a purchase those tax and penalty free that, honestly, no one would have expected right. And this has to deal with the president of our company, and he tells us story just illustrate the power of this account. Alright, so it involves an HSA, for those of you don't know, and a health savings account, right? It's something that if you have a high deductible health care plan, it allows you to put money aside, that one is going to be tax deductible as it goes in. But two, it can grow. It can grow self directed, right, you can manage the funds and direct them how you want. And then three, if they're coming out, right towards qualified medical expenses, they're coming out tax and penalty free. That means you made that money and spent that money without paying a dime in taxes on it. Right? So I know when you say no qualified medical expense, it's probably a pretty short list. Believe it or not the list of what you can spend it on, or I'm sorry, the list of what you can't spend it on is shorter than list of what you can spend it on. Okay, okay. All right. So what he did, he always every single year would max out his contributions to each HSA, right, making sure he's always got money in there. Right. Now, over time, let's say he established it just for the sake of story he established like 2008, it was a while ago. Over time, you would incur medical expenses, right? Whether it's copay, he's paying out of pocket for surgeries, dental expenses, he's buying, he bought glasses, over the counter drugs, prescription drugs we've been seeing use for eyedrops, right? So he just collected these all of these invoices, right? And he made sure to file them away every time. Now, go forward. I think this was in 20. This was in 2017, if I'm not mistaken. So nine years after he opened up the account. He took he he had the opportunity, right? He's a pilot. He loves flying, right? But he supplies a small two seater planes. He's always wanted to own one. Right. And finally he saw one that he'd been looking at for a while that was available for him to buy. What did he do? He took all of those invoices, right? All of those little receipts, everything. He filed them, added them all up. And then took one massive distribution from his HSA for the entire amount, and then use that money to buy that plane tax in penalty free. Not a dime came out of his pocket when it came to taxes. But he was able to leverage that account to purchase a plane without paying $1 in taxes. 3:23 That sounds illegal. It does, right. 3:25 It does. The beauty of an HSA. The beauty of an HSA. 3:30 Right that is that that's insane. That's literally insane. So an HSA. So does everybody check out the our Ira interview that's longer about 30 minutes long. So check that episode out. But Does this qualify as as like an IRA, where you have you can have multiple IRAs, or is HSA completely different different type of product? terms you can actually put into it annually. 3:54 Yeah, so if if the huddle will the high deductible health care plan that you're under, and that's the requirement, right, you have to have a high deductible health care plan. Coverage is just you, you can put $3,650 in, if it covers you plus a family, or you your kids, your spouse, even if it's just your spouse, right, then it bumps up to 7300. him covered him and his his younger children. So 7300 a year he was just making sure he was putting it in there. Right along with it. Obviously, he knows how to invest personally. So using those funds, partnering with his IRAs, and making investments helping to grow even further. So by the time he got there, he had collected enough of these medical expenses, to be able to cash them all out at once. Keep in mind as long as you establish the HSA before the medical expense was incurred. You can be reimbursed at any time doesn't have to be within that year. 4:52 I'm really ready because in my head I'm like I'm gonna start holding on my my medical bills. 4:58 I tell you what, you get the good stuff. an HSA started doing that I do I do the same thing, right? Like I went to the I went to the dentist, and it was like it was a couple $100. And I could have paid out of my HSA. But I decided, like, you know what, I've gotten enough cash on hand. Thankfully, I'm able to be able to cover this now, because I know down the road, I need a couple 100 bucks. I got it right there tax and penalty free. 5:22 I think I think it's I'm really glad you mentioned this because I feel like it's it's like alternate form of investing that you don't even think about or even know about. But you since you work in this industry, you understand that part. So I learned something about HSA is, like, I'm learning this is why everybody here I do podcasting for selfish reason, because I want to learn from the experts. And you're just flying all since episode. So if you enjoyed this episode, I appreciate it. But this isn't for me. 5:52 Thanks for watching. But honestly, this was supposed to be a one on one conversation. That's all. It's it's it's not it's not a retirement account. But it functions pretty similar to one you have we can have multiple HSAs. But like the traditional Roth IRAs, your contribution limits are between them. All right, so 3636 50 for all of your accounts, not each one, a total between them all. 6:16 Yeah, so if you're interested in starting HSA quest Trust Company, 6:21 right, it wasn't called Quest trust company.com.
