They also fail to mention that banks charge you a monthly fee to have an HSA account, so the money you save in taxes the banks get.

It is not worth it and just another scheme.

Ultimately you save nothing and it also locks your money in on what you can use it for. You are better off setting up a free savings account and use that.

Enough with the gimmicks.
