Today Nicole gives you the playbook for major savings when it comes to health insurance and medical bills. Plus, she decodes some of the common alphabet soup in health insurance (HSAs, FSAs, WTF?).

One of the trickiest things about investing in retirement accounts is that by the time you know how much you could’ve contributed for a tax break, it’s too late (e.g., you can only make 401(k) contributions through Dec. 31). But there are a few accounts in the tax-advantaged investing world that allow contributions right up until the tax deadline, making them incredible options for last-minute savings. After all, I prefer deductions that come from investing over deductions for spending: Why would I spend $100 to save $32 when I could invest (read: keep) $100 to save $32? Reminder: I’m not a licensed tax professional. Please consult your CPA and do your own research before making big money moves.
