What happens when the fundamentals of Social Security face unprecedented challenges? Join me, Kelly Brothers, as I unpack the looming crises of a dwindling worker-to-beneficiary ratio and rising life expectancies, which put Social Security's financial stability at risk. We'll explore potential solutions like raising the retirement age and forming a nonpartisan panel, and consider how these changes could shape retirement planning and the future of Medicare. Ever wondered how raising the minimum wage affects more than just your paycheck? This episode dives into the ripple effects, from inflation to the rise of automation in fast food settings, particularly in high-cost areas like California. We'll also decode the complexities of investing during election years, shedding light on how political gridlock often brings stability and predictability to financial markets. Imagine maximizing your Roth IRA to a staggering billion dollars and more. Learn how tech titans have done just that as we explore the ins and outs of Roth IRAs, including contribution limits, income constraints, and conversion strategies. Plus, we'll discuss how to choose the right financial advisor for you, highlighting the importance of fiduciary responsibility and personalized service.
