"Bracing" for Some 2009 Expenses

I set aside $2,500 of my salary to my Health Care Spending Account primarily to cover the cost of the dental braces that I plan on having next year. The treatment duration is expected to be 18-24 months so I will just pay for the remaining balance through the amount I will set aside in the account for the year 2010.

The Health Care Spending Account gives me some financial benefits because it is taken from my pre-tax salary. The downside is that it is a use-it-or-lose-it option. Should I decide not to have braces, that amount cannot be retrieved back to my salary and I have to spend it on any qualified health-related spending.

The alternatives that I have thought of so far are:
  1. LASIK (eye surgery)
  2. A pair of really cool eyeglasses
  3. Psychiatric care
  4. Lots and lots of Tylenol/Advil bottles

Sure, i agree. It is a great capsule. My partner tried it in March and acquired the comparable outcomes.

(he've lost ten lbs in 3-3.five weeks). He also started jogging this summer and lost an extra 10-12lbs. So more than 20 lbs in ~3-4 months period.. Not undesirable for 50 years previous boy!

I, too, bought Boston shirts last month?

Is there an ETA? I thought they were supposed to arrive by Mother's Day?! Thanks.
