You can make tax-advantaged contributions to an HSA which can pay for medical expenses not covered by your insurance.  Funds can accumulate year-to-year.  Any funds in the account after you turn 65 can be withdrawn for non-medical personal use without penalty.  They are taxed the same as a regular IRA account distribution.  Talk to us about requirements and contribution limits and see if it is right for you.

 

The Individual Retirement Account (IRA) limit for 2006 and 2007 is $4,000 for people under 50.  Based on your income and other factors, you can contribute that to a regular IRA or a ROTH IRA

 

 

If you have an area that is ‘exclusively used for business’ and it is necessary for your business, you might be able to deduct certain costs pertaining to a home office if it meets the requirements.

 

 

If your employer has a 401-K or 403-B plan, individuals under age 50 can contribute $15,500 for 2007.  Talk to us about these and other retirement planning options.
