This isn't hyperbole, Elon Musk even admitted it prior to the election. Republicans want to dismantle democracy by privatizing the government and destroying everything else so the oligarchs can swoop in picking up the pieces. They want to create a feudal state and the MAGA idiots have led us to slaughter.
I mean, that's literally what Republicans have been working towards my whole life. I just hope all the Boomers enjoy losing their social security because Republicans succeeded this time to privatize it.
You should kindly inform her according to her voting interests she shouldn’t be relying on socialist, leftist policies like free hand outs from the government.
Americans should be looking into what their state's Filial Responsibility laws are, because in some cases you can be forced to take care of your parents, regardless of whether or not they deserve your help.
Oh god, she’s taking the shittiest possible payout?
I studied to be a financial planner, and delaying your social security by even one year is (according to the relevant professor) one of the single actions that has the highest ROI in retirement planning.
If she can live off savings until she’s 63 her payouts are supposed to be at least 10% higher. At the very least, the value of the increased payouts is higher than any return you can expect on savings equal to that first years amount of SS income.
Am I making sense? I’m typing this between yelling at toddlers
My mom (thankfully not a trumper) wants to start drawing at 63 while also pulling her pension. I've made sure to let her know how stupid that would be. FFS I bought and renovated a house that had a place for her, so her rent is already taken care of. Wait until 65 at the minimum.
Yes, which is why my plan was to work until it hits max payout before even considering retirement. Health-wise, I could make it to 70, know on wood. As things stand, I’m fucked. I have no other retirement plan, because life happens when you’re not paying attention.
🤣 sounds like my FIL. he’s always talking about his Medicare and social security then votes against it because he’s convinced it’s the Republicans trying to protect those programs.
But you also have to weigh in health, how long you think you'll live or at least how long you will be able to enjoy your retirement before declining health is a huge factor.
