My wife and I bought an undivided 1/8 share in a vacation/rental condo on April 1, 2011, allowing six weeks per year use or rental. We designated two weeks for the rental pool in 2011 but they were not rented. Neither of us are in the real estate business. What is deductible for our purchase costs and HOA payments in 2011?

As a full-time employee, I was able to pay for medical insurance premiums with pre-tax dollars. Now that I am retiring and receiving a pension, I am able to continue my medical coverage but at a higher premium. I am told that I cannot pay with pre-tax dollars due to section 402a. Is it correct that I lose this benefit?
