The 2.5% COLA for 2025 provides a modest increase in benefits for Americans receiving Social Security and SSI payments, helping to offset the rising cost of living and inflation. This increase offers essential financial relief for vulnerable populations like retirees.
The thought of retirement makes me cry. My apologies to everyone who have retired and filing social security during this time after putting in all those years of work just to lose everything to a problem you never imagined to happen. It’s so difficult for people who are retired and have no savings to fall back on.
Investing Is more than reading quarterly reports. Learnt this from reading Peter Lynch's book. I believe there are people who do this for a living, and I just delegate the task to these professionals. That's how I make money from the market to be honest.
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Stacy Lynn Staples’’ for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I’m glad I worked starting at age 12 so I was able to retire at 53. The most powerful years are the early years that get adjusted the most for inflation. I maxed out my SSA limits in my late years of work but it doesn’t pay SSA wise to keep working as the early years will determine how close to the max you’ll get.
I'm here to tell ya, SS does NOT cover the necessities for my 86 YO dad who has no investments (other than a bunch of collectibles that I have been selling for him to raise cash for work his house was desperately in need of). His house is paid off, but SS does not provide enough for ALL of his expenses. His brother/my uncle helped him out until he passed away, and I and several friends of his help him out in different ways. And we live in KANSAS with a much lower cost of living than where I lived for 27 years in California!
I am at the beginning of my "investment journey", planning to put 385K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% annually in dividend returns. any good recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated.
