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.

Misled on Maternity Leave Policy. I found out I only get 4 weeks pay for maternity leave (STD +“sick days”). I will take 12 weeks but wont get paid for 8 weeks. I work for a US, west coast based company in the tech/VC industry. Their website claims to offer “paid parental leave and other progressive benefits for parents”. I didn’t find out until after I was hired their pay was only 8 weeks but since I have been at the company less than 12 months, I don’t qualify for their policy. Is this unfair?
