flexible spending accounts are a great option for many people including younger adults. they give people some additional money to use -- on a pre-tax basis -- for health services they need. and just like the name says they are indeed flexible. the best way to get word out is through forums like this and through employers. it's important to know that fsas are not a fix-it-all. they are limited to $2 500 annually in terms of what can be contributed. remember these are amounts that individuals have to contribute on a pre-tax basis. it is not just money given to them by employers.
do you think young employed adults know enough about the benefits of health care flexible spending accounts? . how can more awareness be raised?
