We have been contributing to HSA while working. Now that I am retired, does it still makes sense to continue to contribute?
Also, I am confused as to whether one should pay for health care expenses from the HSA or pay out of pocket and let the money accumulate tax free like an IRA. Lots of people on boggleheads seem to pay out of pocket but I am I don't understand the calculations on where it makes sense. Unfortunately if looks like we are going to be using a bunch of medical care again this year (deductible +).
This year we will still be in a high tax bracket due to option sales but next year will be in a lower bracket with retirement income only.
Thanks for advice.
