It has become increasingly difficult to get young driver car insurance in the UK. The reason behind this is because the statistics for young drivers having a car accident are not very good. By definition, young drivers have very little experience of driving and thus have a greater chance of having a bump in their vehicle. Car insurance companies are obviously in business to make money and are understandably reluctant to insure such drivers. In most cases, companies will either offer a policy at a very high premium or refuse to insure the person altogether.
MSA or HSA: Can I Keep My MSA Or Do I Need to Convert it into an HSA?
The Medical Savings Account (MSA) is an older form of the Health Savings Account (HSA).
You cannot open a new MSA. You cannot contribute additional money into your MSA.
However, you can keep your MSA as long as you like. When you retire, it will automatically turn into an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and you can withdraw money from it then for any reason (not just medical).
Or, if you don't want to keep your MSA, you can roll it into your HSA.
Why would anyone want to keep their MSA?
I can think of only one circumstance. My wife and I have kept our MSA because our HSA custodian does not offer very good investment options yet in their HSAs. They only have a type of money market account for their HSA offerings. We want to put money into mutual fund accounts rather than money markets, but with their HSA product, we can't do that yet, until they expand the options.
For the most part, it will make perfect sense to roll your MSA into an HSA. However, if you decide not to do that, it is your right to hang on to that MSA as long as you wish, and retire with that money or use it for medical expenses along the way.

While things might be going along great right now they could change at anytime and if you have a mortgage or loan repayments to keep up with then problems could arise. In the worst case when getting into mortgage arrears the lender could choose to repossess and you would have a struggle finding the money without an income to catch up. This is when planning for the future by taking out a payment protection plan can come into its own.
Payment protection policies can be your savior if you were to lose your income after becoming unemployed or suffering an illness or an accident. You would be able to claim on the policy after a fixed period of time which is stated in the terms and conditions of the policy. The payment you would receive would keep your head above water while you looked around for work or recovered after being unfit for work.
There are numerous reasons why you might be able to benefit from taking out one of the payment protection insurance policies. Imagine for a moment that you have a large mortgage to pay or pay out a lot each month in loans. How would your manage if you suddenly became ill, suffered an accident or lost your job to redundancy?
