Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.
If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.
🇺🇸 The guy went to check out a basic 1-bedroom apartment in Austin
Rent? $2,300 a month.. to even qualify, he has to make $88,000 a year
Bro’s apartment costs more than his car and requires a better salary than most doctors in 2005
Housing market is off
I get it. I do not fit in this category so why do I care. But governments cannot endlessly tax wealthy people to raise revenue when the government has a spending problem and a fraud problem.
OUTRAGEOUS: NYC Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s plan to slap new taxes on wealthy individuals’ second homes has PASSED New York State lawmakers — targeting non-primary luxury properties worth $1M or more to help close the city’s massive budget shortfall.
Melissa DeRosa: “I was speaking this morning to a CEO of a major residential real estate company here in New York, and she was telling me deals are already being killed left and right.”
It is almost impossible to get adverse possession. The homeowner basically has to be looking at you in his house doing day to day stuff and being like…ehh whatever
This is an epidemic.
Another house for sale that was occupied by a squatter who changed the locks .. she was claiming adverse possession.
Cop wasn’t buying it. It’s very satisfying watching her get dragged out and cuffed !
Good news: Ahead of NJ TRANSIT World Cup train tickets going on sale tonight, @NJTRANSIT is lowering ticket prices to $98 without New Jersey taxpayer money.
Thank you to our partners – DoorDash, Audible, FanDuel, DraftKings, PSE&G, South Jersey Industries, and American Water – for helping make this possible.
We’re excited to host a world-class event this summer and showcase New Jersey on the global stage.
I saw my first Dutch Bros in Washington State 4/5 years ago. After going through the drive through I was like wow I need one of these this is going to be massive. It is now the 3rd biggest Coffee/energy drink company
BREAKING: Two New Jerseyans may have been exposed to a person infected with hantavirus who was on the cruise ship MV Hondius where an outbreak has killed three, state health officials have said.
🚨 USPS WORKER BREAKS DOWN HER LIFE IN SHIFTS — AND PEOPLE CAN'T BELIEVE THE FINAL NUMBER
A postal worker sat down and did the math on her future… and it’s not what people expected.
• 18 more years on the job
• 900 weeks left
• 6 days a week
• 5,400 shifts still to go
Then she says a quiet prayer:
“Please let me live to see that pension.”
She even jokes she’s “dead inside” but people watching aren’t laughing.
When you break life down like that, into shifts and weeks, it stops feeling like time and starts feeling like a countdown.
At what point does “job security” start feeling like a life sentence?
This Allbirds story is so insane:
→ $BIRD IPO'd in 2021 at a $4 billion valuation
→ Silicon Valley's favorite shoe
→ Lost 99.5% of its value in 4 years
→ Closed every US store
→ Sold the entire brand for $39 million
→ Renamed itself "NewBird AI"
→ Using $50M to buy GPUs and compete with AWS
→ Stock up 450% today on 875x normal volume
This is the most unhinged corporate pivot of the decade and the newest meme stock entrant
“We are $1 million in debt.”
This woman and her husband have a total of just under $1,000,000 in debt, here’s the breakdown.
- Mortgage $210,000
- Student Loans $335,000
- Credit Cards $136,000
- Personal Loans $44,000
- Car Loans $35,000
She is only 29 years old, and her husband is 32 years old.
They both have “advanced degrees”. One in MBA and the other in policy. They both work in the government.
Their household income is $230,000.
I wouldn’t be able to breathe if I had $136K in credit card debt. This is insane. 😭
I really will never understand how people get themselves in these situations.
American healthcare worker says she has $105,309.76 of student loan debt
Between her loans she’s accruing roughly $464 in interest debt alone every single month
If she was to pay $1,000 per month, it would still take her 10 years to pay off this loan. Even at a $1,000 per month payment she would pay roughly $51,000 just in interest
This is predatory lending. This is a scam
That goodbye in Marley & Me (2008) at the vet, followed by those home videos, it just hits in a way that’s hard to sit through, one of the saddest scenes ever.
Sorry chuds, but NJ-12 is a diverse American tapestry that speaks dozens of languages. While you guys focus on "woke", I'm running for Congress to help everyday people, no matter what language they speak at home.
