Any amount once beyond $3000 initially.

You can also do VOO, the ETF, if you want to buy any amount and intraday trades like a stock.

Ok cool. So once I buy the first 3k then I can go to buying bits monthly. I wish I could buy VOO but HSA provider doesn’t offer it, only MFs so have to go VFIAX

If you are planning to buy a house soon, here's a great way you can save taxes.

When you usually sell your shares, it attracts taxes. You either pay STCG for less than 1 year or LTCG for 1 year or above. Even if you sell your existing property, you would have to pay taxes on the capital gains.

But, if you have plans to buy a house, use the Capital Gains Account Scheme (CGAS) to save taxes.

How does CGAS work?

Let's say you bought a few shares in 2017 and want to sell them in 2022.
