Hi there!

US Immigrant here and trying to navigate the financial/retirement landscape.

Could someone kindly explain to me why I keep hearing people talking about maxing out their HSA and then using it to invest? I thought HSA was just a way to have pre-taxed dollars available for medical expenses?

Any books or resources I could learn about this stuff? Kind of like US retirement and investing for dummies haha.

What companies are holding (in their BS) the debt to finance the 2020-2021 boom for used RVs, used light aircrafts, luxury cars (used cars in general), used boats, art, etc.

Typically these type of loans are securitized and sold to 401k/mutual fund investments. However, that is not always the case (e.g. Carvana). I also heard yesterday from finance expert that BOA holds all loans thry issued.

Any companies in the industries above that are holding 2020-2021 financing in their books?

I have over 12 years in B2B sales/sales management experience along with a graduate degree. I am wanting to shift gears and I am at a point where I can invest time in myself to learn through practical experience. The new industry I am wanting to pursue is real estate investment. I have read all the books but want some hands on experience on the property management side. How could I best leverage my skills for a role in this, and what should my expectations be for negotiation in compensation?

Any suggestion is appreciated.
