@MoneyJrod @HeroDividend The question is then, “do we really want the government to be using OUR money to get some amount of control/influence over American companies?”

The answer is no. Unfortunately, the SS fund is just stuck owning government bonds and giving us poor returns

[Main St Finance Podcast @MainStMoney]

@MoneyJrod @HeroDividend So why can’t we invest that money in the market? Then we can all make better returns so we can get fatter checks in retirement. Win win right?

If the government used that money to buy stocks, they’d get voting shares in those companies; and therefore some control in those stocks

@bestfilmeverpod @SalomeSibonex Flight school takes a lot of time, so I definitely haven’t been recording. But you can always find me lurking in the shadows of Twitter and BFE 🤣

@bestfilmeverpod Fantasy will be close, but we’ll see how it goes 🤣

Howdy! Didn’t get a chance to send y’all a Christmas message because I suck sometimes, but I hope the gang has a merry Christmas!

Looking forward to more fantastic content in 2023 and perhaps another chance to throw in my own two pence on a movie with y’all!

@DreemBigger_ @Thefrugalgay11 As an ex-credit analyst, I agree with this guess.

We’re a breed that’s always curious about random money stuff

There’s Libby, Hoopla, and many city libraries also have their own app.

Library cards are usually free or only a few bucks. Go get yourself a license for free knowledge!

[Rio Romeo @romeovomit]

to keep up w/ audible, spotify is now selling audiobooks. do NOT buy from either of these brands. there's an app called Libby which is 100% FREE that has thousands of old & brand new audiobooks and all you need is your library card number!

My wife just got an advertisement on the mail from Walmart that they are now doing personal loans up to $50k and up to 36% interest.

So I guess if you live in a state where payday lenders are illegal, at least you have Walmart.

Remember that during the Gold Rush, the people that made the most money were the ones selling the mining supplies

Today, we have evolved to online gurus that make money showing how to mine using their “proven system” instead of actually using their system. No pickax required!

Yahoo Finance just sent out their Morning Brief where they showed that 44% of companies are rescinding job offers.

All that’s going to do is kill the “two week notice”.

After all, If my new job isn’t secure, then I’m not leaving the one I have until my start date.

@KatTretina Zero debt, $39k starting salary. After 8 months, that went up to $58k

We’ll gang, it’s been a tough 4 months, but yesterday I finally received my Private Pilot’s License!!

It’s been a few weeks since my last episode and I’ve definitely been slacking on Twitter from all the studying, but hopefully I’ll be less busy from here on out!

Starting to look like a good time to roll a traditional account into a Roth account. However I think I’m going to sit until we’re officially in a recession an see if I can do this rollover with a lower tax bill.
