The only American who won't acknowledge this Administration's failed economic policies is Joe Biden. "Shrink-flation' is the least of our worries compared to rising rents and stagnant wages, but it is an undeniable indicator of how bad our inflation has gotten. I have $100k that i like to invest in a non-retirement account, any advice on that?
I would avoid index funds, mutual funds, and specific stocks for the time being. Right now, the best option is a fixed income of five percent. Put money aside for the times when the market really starts to bounce back.
45% of Americans do not invest in the stock market because of lack of guidance. Every year you don't invest, you are falling behind. I’m hitting numbers in the stock market I used to dream of… Going from $50k to $600k in my portfolio is surreal all thanks to insights from my financial advisor.
I find your situation fascinating. Would you be willing to suggest a trusted advisor you've worked with?
renowned for her proficiency and expertise in the financial market, vivian jean wilhelm” my financial advisor, holds a broad understanding of portfolio diversification and is recognized as an authority in this domain.
VIVIAN JEAN WILHELM is among the most accomplished portfolio managers in the industry, widely acknowledged for her outstanding work. I highly recommend taking a closer look at her impressive portfolio.
This guy said it out loud. The government is to big.
Social security is not a entitlement. I've paid into it all my working life.
It is an "entitlement". You are entitled too it BECAUSE you paid into it. The word is not being used properly by the media. When you pay for something at the market you are entitled to the product YOU paid for.
It was an idiot tax and socialism haha.. weird how Americans could be bribed out of their ideals..or threatened I haven't been paying taxes for years... Won't be .. not till the dollar busts which will be soon
Originally it was labeled Social security insurance
And Uncle Sam was Johnny on the spot at taking SS out of our paycheck every week for decades at a time . They didn't miss a beat !
You paid for the generation before you. It’s a Ponzi scheme.
I paid into social security for 40 years, its NOT an entitlement its getting MY money back
Perfectly said! Couldn't agree more! 👏👏💯👏👏
That’s never how it worked. That’s the lie you were sold and, unfortunately, bought into. It was always a transfer payment system from the active working class to the retirement cohort. At its inception, the ratio of workers to retirees was about 13:1. Surpluses were common. Now people live much, much longer past “retirement” age. With the baby boomers moving heavily into retirement, the ratio is now less than 5:1. Social Security has also been tapped into for disability and other programs expansion for payments to non-working populations, so the “fund” accelerated toward its breaking point.
Once the government dissolved the ss lockbox and dumped the program into the general fund it became an entitlement. And they deceive people in thinking that it's theirs because they payed into it, when all along it a separate tax. Don't be mad at me I'm just saying the reality of the scam sold to us wrapped in lies 85 years ago with numbered identity to boot.
I really hate when they call SS an entitlement.
@@stantheman9072 NO! I was more akin to a retirement insurance policy that was government managed until they rolled the money into the general fund.
Quit taking money out of Social Security funds for other uses and it will be fine.
JUST REMEMBER THAT “SOCIAL SECURITY” is NOT an ENTITLEMENT!!! We Americans paid into it and deserve it when we retire!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

It is an "entitlement". You are entitled too it BECAUSE you paid into it. The word is not being used properly by the media. When you pay for something at the market you are entitled to the product YOU paid for.
Blah blah, every one of these congress people say the same crap Nothing gets done!!
Let's get rid of Biden Please Please Please!!!!
Get all of the hands out of the cookie jar !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Social Security should have never been put in the general fund !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was a slick willie move!
Gov out of control
This will affect every citizen in the United States.
Emphasis on citizen.
Stop giving it to foreigner 😮😮
*Biden is supporting his 10 million illegals he allowed to flood in using your tax dollars.*
In fact Biden is flying illegals directly into America
Raising taxes will result in more fraudulent spending
It;s getting kinda hard to get behind some of these elected servants in the government .... TERM LIMITS
It's not the elected ones as much it's the implanted bureaucracy that stays no matter what administration exists it's called the deep state I call it the corrupt uniparty establishment trump called it a corrupt swamp that needs draining
Time for a reset in the government.
It’s going to have to be done
The US has already accumulated debts and pledges that it cannot pay. This problem has developed over several decades under both Republican and Democrat administrations. It reflects a fundamental failing of liberal democracy. People keep voting for more government and more government handouts until the economy collapses. The problem cannot be solved proactively..
It can only be resolved by a major crisis.
Voting should be regarded as a privilege and be restricted to qualified taxpayers.
I agree. Honestly.
Watch what happens when Trump returns. The federal government had more revenue coming in than ever before in history.
like it or not, if it was not for Covid spending, aka mass manufacturing of masks ventilators hospital gowns and ridiculous lockdowns three vaccines, etc etc etc there was a skyrocket V shaped recovery when the dems planted themselves into power and unleashed their socialist spending nightmares paying people to not work, and marxist style open border policy that flooded the country and sent to other countries everything they could in the billions. Just ridiculous. Killing our energy independence killed our nations wealth. That was the plan all along. Bankrupt the economy. Usher in abject marxist socialism. The dems are going to pay the price for that failed misery they cast upon the people here. As for Covid... when it is revealed who knew and planned the release of it in an election year there will be all holy hell to pay. Fauci knows its coming. you can not hide the truth it always outs.
Most of what you say is true, however, without covering some other facts, you leave the voters in limbo.
My point is, before the COVID shut down, Trumpty had a plus 2% inflation with a Plus 4% GDP, which in turn, would balance the budget in 30 years. Make that GDP plus 5% and the US would balance in 22 years.
It is up to the Voter. Can pay.
Newsflash, bankrupt for a century is more like it..
@@james-kh7oiyou also miss major facts trump made us energy independent and assumed he would get a second term in which we would have started exporting energy to the world our deficit would be drastically reduced and our economy would be booming instead the Biden administration did away with all of that
Stop giving SS to millionaires and give the difference to the elderly and disabled poor who have a LEGAL right to a larger check that keeps pace with inflation. And is also the MORAL thing to do. There may a be wasteful spending but keeping the elderly and disabled in decent conditions is NOT it.
Raise my taxes and I'll raise my pitchfork.
All talk
That's a big 10-4
From the amount of money that the United States gives away, I find it hard to understand that in order to actually cut government spending that you have to cut the entitlements first. Just think of how much of the debt can be brought down if you start now pulling back the "give away" money to other countries and use that to pay down the debt. Not to borrow more so that you can try and sneak a bribe in such as "loan forgiveness".
Social Security is not an entitlement. We all have paid into it more than will ever get back. Leave it the hell alone that's our money and the irresponsible government has spent it !!!!!
It is, in the sense that people are "entitled" to it BECAUSE they have paid into it.
You are mostly right, but Yes, Social security as it was set up, is an "entitlement." We are "entitled to it, because we paid into it and so did our EMPLOYERS. It's the other welfare systems that are "not entitlements", nor are the millions of freeloading illegals that are piling into the systems. Nobody EXCEPT us SS recipients ever paid a dime into a self plan
SO … WHY ARE WE SPENDING MONEY ON OTHER COUNTRIES AND ILLEGALS ?
dont touch social security 🤬
Only socialist/communist comrades support it. 🤮
Go to your safe space cookie
The way we're spending now it's going to be sooner
At what point so we all collectively say, "ENOUGH" and DO something to end this insanity?
I don’t get it. I feel like Tom Hanks character in the movie Big. I didn’t go to college but…. How many years have these college educated people, called our government/politicians been getting the United States into debt? And why hasn’t somebody done something about it? How do you spend money like this that YOU don’t have?
i PAID into it for 46 years. i WILL get it back 1 way or another.
*No you won't, you will get some and some will go to the single mothers and welfare spongers that hardly paid into the system, each child in US government schools costs around $20,000/yr/child, you don't think the 30 million illegals with kids in government schools are paying in enough for their 3 kids to attend schools do you?*
Pedro from Honduras with his wife and 3 kids earning $40,000 paying $1,200/yr tax aren't adding to the tax base
^ he's right
I guess when supporting the rest of the world and open borders on top of it... Is only a matter time when americans have had enough of being rip off... When you got a government that just takes and takes and do as they please with our $$$ !!! That's outright Robbing Us In Our Faces... And just ain't the government wallstreet rings a bell to... And should be a stop to it ! Wake The Hell Up America...
@@mohammadwasilliterate8037we have a corrupt uniparty establishment that has been robbing the country blind for decades the rich get richer and more powerful while the rest of the country slowly goes in debt if trump was president right now we would be exporting energy to the world our deficit would be drastically reduced and our economy would be booming instead the Biden administration did away with all of that and we aren't even energy independent anymore
How about cutting government spending by 20 percent!
He makes a lot of sense. Won't happen.
THE WHOLE WORLD WAS SAFER AND SANER WHEN PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS IN THE WHITEHOUSE! Period.
🇺🇸🙏🏼🇺🇸
simple enough. thanks
Right on mr arlington👍👍👍👍😊🙏🌈🌈well said,well said!!!
When they raise taxes ,they’ll just spend it before they collect anyway .. . it’s their job
Looks like us here in Canada! Spending, spending, and the hard-working people pay the bills !
Open the frackin spirits, drill baby drill
*EVERYTHING is short of money, USA has $34 Trillion debt and a government spending like a drunken sailor, the interest alone is well over a $Trillion.*
I dont see how the national debt will ever be paid down
Trump had us well on our way to exporting energy to the world which would have drastically reduced our deficit and our economy would be booming but the Biden administration did away with all of that and we aren't even energy independent anymore
Wow! Debt clock goes up $300k in 8 seconds! What a disaster the establishment has created! But, let’s just keep voting for the same old Bidet and Co.! 🤦♂️
That will be the least of issues
Its actually more than a Trillion a year.
So what good does it do for us to vote all these people in to office, all you do is talk about how much we are in dept, you get paid but all the poor muddle class does is wait for you to stop this spending?…
FJB
3 decades too late.
Not we. You politicians. Own it ffs.
You cant do all this with our current corrupt government
When us Ukraine paying it back, such B.S.
Ukraine is paying in blood
And illegal invaders have social security number too. Thanks joe and democrats
Bad blood@@CampaignSeasonIsOver
@@wendytestaburger7795 Ukraine did what to get invaded,, nothing,, if you're an American you better start paying attention,, Putin said NATO is next,,that means our troops are attacked,,
We caught Trump's campaign in contact with Russians over 140 times in 2016,,: Russia is America's enemy as long as Putin is in charge
@@wendytestaburger7795 Talk to pooten , he is your only way out.
Welfare is not a mandatory requirement.
All the money we gave to countries do they have to pay it back
Spending is totally out of control. Stop all federal spending on state submitted spending that can be rolled back to the states or local governments.
Yes, *SPENDING REFORM* ... not tax reform [to garnish more *earnings* from the regular folks]!
Wasn't it only 2 Billion to build the wall?
Won’t bother me at all, I haven’t paid taxes in over 20 yrs.
Why?
Just print more money
Stop funding irs.
People, if you don't know. Read what happened to Argentina and what their economy was when we was a young Country. Now learn what is going to happen with our Country if we don't drop all the entitlements.
"I guess our spending is out of control"
You think? Except for once or twice gov spending has been out of control every since I was born in the 50s.
But God can save this nation whether or not one believes but is better that one does believe in him
Maybe the government should return what they have stolen repeatedly from social security.
I will be pissed I pay enough taxes for things i should not stop steeling from us
We have to stop givving money to all these countries and start taking care of our own pleople.
That was not a request!
just call social security "Ukraine".......it'll be solvent for decades to come...........
At least 10 years. Supposidly joe already took care if that.
Go to any social security office and you'll see nothing but young people. I thought it only for 62 and up... 😮
They are there applying for Disability benefits
Now we know how the top 2 percent live spend spend spend
U can't run a kool-aid stand
The bureaucracy is so confused. They want to protect their elected positions.
They’ll do what the minority population want. While ignoring the majority population of hardworking Americans. Respecting laws and wanting order
Maybe LBJ shouldn't have taken money from SS to pay for Vietnam .
It's so funny how some of these governments guys can say,", if you do this, if you do that ". Excuse me sir, but the current National debt is a democrat and GOP problem that neither has addressed for decades.
Biden says 17 million new jobs where is the tax money from them
But Medicaid won't. 😂
Stop sending money off to other countries and don't mess with the social security for which we, the people worked for most of our lives.
Average joe here , it will take me to live 9 years to get back what i gave in to SS. Not a long time an now you get less.
This representative knows what he’s talking about. The truth is way more painful.
Of course they “have to” raise taxes. That’s what they do.🙄
Why do we even pay taxes when they just print more fiat currency at will?
Wasteful fraudulent spending -wasteful fraudulent spending!
I would say the tall order is fixing this first! I remember when I finally cut my CC & said FINALLY
Often we are our own worst enemy
Get a grip
Remember we are called
Some for the first time & others to remember
Elon and Trump are the best people of our generation!
🇺🇸TRUMP/MUSK 2024🇮🇱
Hahahahaha, both bow down to the small hats.
100%
Actually, you can save US from calamity! All you have to do is create legislation that allows for government and charities to offer preferred stock on public exchanges. Allow the preferred stock to be based on infrastructure projects, minerals, energy, commercial and industrial real estate, and agriculture. Then, allow the charitable and government debt markets to convert their debt into the equities of the preferred stock with the same tax-exemption status of charitable and government bonds. Then, you can allow government departments and agencies to be run by charitable organizations to significantly "reduce the financial burden of government: and reduce the tax burden of the people of the United States. Frankly, every funding need government has would be based on bonds as they are now and on the equity market performance. Most of what the government does can be funded through charitable organizations that are competing against each other to provide the best value to the people.
But this clown doesn't want to pay on Medicare who in the hell does he think he is
Wrong
Thank u Biden
We need to stop funding other countries. We need to start to taking care of our own people. Until these politicians realize this the American people are screwed. FJB and his cronies. Trump 2024
👍👍 Amazing video! Despite the economic recession, I no longer depend on Government Grants since I acquire $86,400 weekly profits.
Great news! how did you get that?
@@RodrigoSpencer-in9io It's all thanks to Amelia Naik.
trading under proper guidance remains the best way to succeed in today's crypto market
Wow I know Amelia Naik. Her platform maintains a unique perspective and is very transparent with their investors. Regardless of whether or not she outperforms. I will forever stay invested!
The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week, we received $4500. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.
It’s honestly really hard to listen to specifically whoever you people are in this video
Tell warren buffet give back all his corporate welfare n subsidies his companies dont need his overseas holdings his railroads his insurance company etc
Well if the Republicans would vote no on any remaining spending bills this year, we might have a chance to start spending less f ing money!
HUH?
Social Security should become a 401K plan. You get what you put in.
It was designed to be like a retirement insurance policy. There are those who pay in for 40 years but die before collecting any or within a few years. This offsets those who live longer ultimately collecting more than they paid in. That's exactly how insurance works.
@@DrHarryT I know, but I’ve personally seen way too many people who came here from other countries, never put into the system and collected from it for many years.
@@juanch6936 I agree like Brandon wants to give the illegals SS. It's designed so that what ever you paid in over the years dictates how much you get each month once you qualify
Like my son who worked self employed under and the table for the first 35 years of his life not paying any FICA, i told him at this rate his SS check will be 0 [zero]
My brother paid in for 45 years working after he could have collected it and then he died in a motorcycle accident without collecting a penny of the money he paid in. In a 401K scenario, where does his money go?
The way it was designed for people that happen to live longer still have livelihood security. As a strictly SS fund the money would be there, it would balance out. But the greedy government had to get their hands on the money and roll the SS account into the general fund and pretend it's a freebee gift when you collect back what you paid into it.
Well It all start with the mother natures resourses ENERGY ,,,Vote for the saving Angel Mr Trump ,,,And get it better Drill Baby drill
I think CEOs need to pay this up.
We are broke and we just added 10 million illegal immigrants to our snap food benefits
10 million people (WRONG) easily 20+million!!

You would say that 😉😉😉

The first step to successful investment is figuring your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but it's very advisable you make use of professional
If we quit sending billions of dollars overseas to help everyone BUT American citizens we would at least be in a better position than this.
THIS IS WHY I STOPPED PAYING TAXES, DONT EVEN FILE, I FILE TOTAL EXEMPTION FOR HALF THE YEAR, I BREAK EVEN OR CLOSE TO IT. I OWE NOTHING, THEY OWE ME NOTHING 🎉
They can touch social security after I get everything I paid out back all at once in one lump sum tax free
and adjusted for inflation....dollar store became 4 for 5 bucks store...
You'll never get anything back. Your so called money belongs to the fed reserve for printing the fiat into circulation so you need to pay w interest one way or the other.
240 billion dollars are being spent on social programs. This is unsustainable & greater then the entire Russian economy. This debt calamity MUST be STOPPED & the balance sheet MUST be balanced!!
Don't preach to me. Preach to bribem and his dimmos.
Will Nancy P. get her full retirement allotment?
Who is this guy, Jody??
Ours or the white house.
I 😂😂😂😂😂
Why do they need to raise taxes if they simply have to print more money for things like 'foreign aid' and foreign wars? Why tax when printing is better?
It’s the democrats playbook. Tax and spend. It’s what they have always done. All that government spending is costing the taxpayers.
Who is beautiful, Melania or Stormy? 👈😎🇺🇸
With all do respect neither ! Sorry ! I do support Mr . Trump ♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻🇺🇸♥️
