    11/15/24: What the Depletion of the Social Security Trust Fund Means for You
    Nov 15 2024
    As the Social Security Trust Fund nears depletion, Americans face potential 20% cuts to benefits starting in 2034, which could significantly affect their retirement security. Financial advisors must help clients understand the importance of personal savings and investments to secure a stable retirement income. And, Michael Saylor, founder and chairman of MicroStrategy, has transformed the company into a major bitcoin investor by reallocating corporate reserves into bitcoin, issuing bonds, and selling stock to fund further bitcoin purchases. And, Rowan University’s Ric Edelman College of Communication and Creative Arts now offers a Bachelor of Arts in Esports with tracks in communication, business, and computing, featuring a state-of-the-art facility. #SocialSecurity #RetirementPlanning #TrustFundDepletion #RetirementSecurity #PersonalFinance #SocialSecurityCuts #FinancialPlanning #InvestmentStrategy #LongevityRisk #RetirementIncome #Bitcoin #MicroStrategy #MichaelSaylor #CorporateReserves #BusinessStrategy #BitcoinInvestment #ConvertibleBonds #CorporateTreasury #CryptoMaximalism #EsportsDegree #RowanUniversity #GamingEducation #CareerInGaming #FutureOfLearning #EsportsInnovation #HigherEducation #GlobalGaming #DigitalCareers ----- Join our mailing list: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/podcast Subscribe to podcast updates: https://form.jotform.com/223614751580152 Ask Ric: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/ask-ric ----- Links from today’s show: Ric Edelman College of Communication and Creative Arts: https://ccca.rowan.edu/ ProtectedIncome.org Study on Retirement and Protected Income: https://www.protectedincome.org/news/information-gap-advisors-consumers-prip-chapter-3-2024/ Protected Income website: https://www.protectedincome.org/ 11/13 Webinar Replay - An Innovative Way to Generate Income in a World of Declining Rates: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/november-13-2024-an-innovative-way-to-generate-income 10/9 Webinar Replay- Crypto for RIAs: Yield, Staking, Lending and Custody.

Owning a vacation home with friends or family may seem like a dream, but shared ownership comes with complex responsibilities and potential conflicts. Plus, when deciding how to fund a family expense, consulting a financial advisor is essential to assess all options and avoid costly mistakes. #CryptoEvolution #DigitalAssets #ResponsibleCrypto #GalaxyDigital #CryptoRegulation #FromSpeculationToStability #LessonsFromFTX #WallStreetToCrypto #CryptoMaturity #CryptoFuture #VacationHome #SharedOwnership #RealEstateTips #JointPropertyOwnership #VacationHomeRisks #CoOwnershipConcerns #FamilyInvestment #BeachHouseDreams #RealEstateRealities #FinancialPlanning #EmergencyFund #SmartSpending #AskAnAdvisor #FinancialDecisions #WealthManagement #StockMarketLoss #PlanAhead #FamilyFinance ----- Join our mailing list: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/podcast Subscribe to podcast updates: https://form.jotform.com/223614751580152 Ask Ric: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/ask-ric ----- Links from today’s show: Galaxy's Investable Universe Report https://hubs.li/Q02V-VnY0 Galaxy: https://www.galaxy.com/ State Street Global Advisors: https://www.ssga.com SPDR® Galaxy Digital Asset Ecosystem ETF (DECO): https://www.ssga.com/us/en/intermediary/etfs/spdr-galaxy-digital-asset-ecosystem-etf-deco SPDR® Galaxy Hedged Digital Asset Ecosystem ETF (HECO): https://www.ssga.com/us/en/intermediary/etfs/spdr-galaxy-hedged-digital-asset-ecosystem-etf-heco SPDR® Galaxy Transformative Tech Accelerators ETF (TEKX): https://www.ssga.com/us/en/intermediary/etfs/spdr-galaxy-transformative-tech-accelerators-etf-tekx 11/13 Webinar - An Innovative Way to Generate Income in a World of Declining Rates: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/november-13-2024-an-innovative-way-to-generate-income 10/9 Webinar Replay- Crypto for RIAs: Yield, Staking, Lending and Custody.
