9/11/23: I’m the Messenger, Not the Fearmongerer
from THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR FUTURE with Ric Edelman · host Ric Edelman
Are we prepared for the Social Security crisis? It's a question we all need to think about - join us as we tackle the pressing issue of the Social Security deficit and the alarming reality that by 2032, the Trust Fund could be completely depleted. With Congress's two options, cutting benefits or raising taxes, the future of Social Security is uncertain. Bringing this issue to light, we confront the myth proposed by financial advisor Garrett, of reducing benefits for high earners and millionaires. But there simply aren't enough high earners to cover the deficit. It's time to start factoring these issues into our retirement planning.
