No one wants to hear it or believe it, but Social Security is going to fail. What can you do to protect you and your family?

No longer a conspiracy theory – Social Security is going to FAIL

On By Trisha BarnesIn Middle Class Revolution, Quit Your Job, Work From AnywhereLeave a comment

Social Security is going to fail. 

We’ve been dancing around this issue for years, not wanting to believe it will happen, hoping it was just all a conspiracy theory but in this recent report, Simon Black gives the grim news.

Black writes:

Social Security’s various trust funds currently hold about $2.7 trillion in total assets; yet the government itself estimates the program’s liabilities to exceed $40 trillion.

In the 2015 report of the Social Security and Medicare Board of Trustees they state very plainly:

“Social Security as a whole as well as Medicare cannot sustain projected long-run program costs…”, and that the government should be “giving the public adequate time to prepare.”

Time to prepare?  What does that mean for you and your family?

Pretty much, it’s time to take control of your future.

It doesn’t matter if you are twenty, thirty or sixty … Social Security should not be your plan for financial support when you retire.

The average monthly benefit for someone who starts taking Social Security at age 62 in 2014 is roughly $1,992 — not even enough to keep them above the federal poverty line.

It was never designed to be a main income source, but according to the  U.S. Social Security Administration,  nearly one in five married retirees and one in two unmarried retirees say they rely on Social Security for the bulk of their income.

It is definitely time to do something to protect your future.

But what?

Create your own streams of income that are not dependent on the government or job security or 401ks or pensions.

We call that entrepreneurship.

Becoming your own boss. Creating your own income.

It’s never too late or never too early to start.

Over 50?  According to the Kauffman Foundation’s Index of Entrepreneurial Activity, 23.4 percent of entrepreneurs are between the ages of 55 and 64, up from 18.7 percent a decade earlier. [full story here]

In your thirty/forty something years?  According to the recently released Global Entrepreneurship Monitor’s 2013 United States Report, the best time to become an entrepreneur is between 35-44. [full story here]

In your twenties?  Hold on, this will motivate you. Some of the most successful entrepreneurs started in their 20s:

  1. Founders of Google  Sergey Brin (25) & Larry Page (25)
  2. Founders of Apple   Steve Jobs (21) & Steve Wozniak (26)
  3. Founders of Microsoft:  Bill Gates (20) & Paul Allen (22)
  4. Founder of Facebook:  Mark Zuckerberg (20)
  5. Founder of Wal-Mart:  Sam Walton (26)
    [full story here]

No matter your age, just do it.

Forget what’s happening with Social Security. That’s a done deal, it’s going to fail.

Instead, step into your greatness and create, design, innovate and build a business to fund all that you desire in life.

Here’s a great way to get started now:

Social-Security
It’s the only way to protect you and your family’s future.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Whatever you dream of doing when you retire … do it now.  Life is too short to wait.

Obama’s Gun Control…Preserve, Protect and Defend What… ?

On By Trisha BarnesIn Middle Class RevolutionLeave a comment

Obama’s gun control message is front and center again.

Another mass shooting, another news brief by the President demanding more gun control as the solution to these shootings.

The  more things change, the more they stay the same.  Time to visit and oldie but goody from our friends over at SovereignMan.   Check out the excerpt below, and read the rest of the article here.

Dangerous, phony gun control logic strikes again.

military-fifer-606195_1280-naked-hippies-roadtrip

Yes, it’s true that throughout history, as long as there has been government, politicians have first sought to disarm their populations before descending into totalitarianism.  But I don’t think that’s what’s happening here.


via GIPHY

…the thing Presidents always say, after all. It’s always some line about how ‘protecting the American people is their #1 responsibility.’

Actually it’s not.

In fact, the word “protect” appears just one time in Article II of the Constitution (the part that deals with the President’s responsibilities).

And it has nothing to do with protecting the American people.

The word is used in reference to the oath of office that every President has taken since George Washington– to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.

Funny thing about the Constitution is that it includes the “right of the people to keep and bear Arms.”

 

obamas-gun-control-protect-what-naked-hippies-roadtrip

. . . there’s no amount of legislation that’s can protect people from crazy.

If someone is really so psycho that they want to inflict harm, they’ll find a way.

I saw the most horrendous video the other day. And I’m sorry I watched it, as it showed a beautiful 17-year-old girl getting stoned to death by hundreds of men in her tribe.

Those guys are crazy. And they murdered this girl. No guns. Just rocks.

So if we’re going to have gun control, we might as well have some stone control to go along with it.

Are You A Fan of Simon Black…?

On By Trisha BarnesIn Middle Class RevolutionLeave a comment

Simon Black?  If you’re not a fan, you will be soon.  

“Governments are like primitive cannibals feasting on a great treasure trove of sheeple. You can’t force them out, and you can’t vote them out. But you can sure as hell starve them out. When enough people pick up and leave, essentially voting with their feet, it accelerates the system crash.” ~Simon Black

It may happen tomorrow – it may not happen for 10 years, but rest
assured it WILL happen.  The only question is …

are you prepared to protect your family?

It’s been said many times “Expect the best, but prepare for the worst.”

Are you prepared?

Simon Says:

“Banks can rig its price all they want; gold’s true value comes from its function as a long-term form of savings and a hedge against a broken financial system.” -Simon Black

I’ve finally calculated the value of a dollar

Dollar-Ben-Franklin-Naked-Hippies-Roadtrip

 

“Central bankers have spent years printing trillions of dollars. In the United States, the Fed’s balance sheet is 5x bigger than it was seven years ago.

But it’s not like the US economy is 5x bigger. Or 5x as much productivity. Or 5x as many goods and services.

No, there’s just 5x as much paper floating around the financial system.”

As Simon Black says, “to believe that the chances of financial calamity are non-existent is a fool’s fantasy that’s just begging for people’s life savings to get wiped out.”

Why the middle class can't afford vacations ... and how you can change this!

Why the Middle Class Can’t Afford Vacations

On By Trisha BarnesIn Middle Class RevolutionLeave a comment

The Middle Class can’t afford vacations …

or new cars  (As of 2013, new cars are priced at $32,086)

or dental work (nearly one in four adults between the ages of 20 and 64 have untreated dental caries (like cavities or infections)

or health care (66% of households say they’ve had to choose between paying for food and paying for medical care)

to pay off debt  (Our debt is growing faster than our income, and many middle class workers have trouble staying afloat)

or emergency savings (Most members of the middle class don’t have at least six months of emergency savings)

or retirement savings (Nearly half of those who don’t save for retirement say it’s because they simply don’t have the money)

Read the full article “7 Things The Middle Class Can’t Afford Anymore.”

As far as retirement savings goes … if you’re 47 or younger, you can kiss Social Security goodbye.  The only way forward is to invest in yourself, particularly in your business and financial education. Make plans based on the assumption that Social Security doesn’t exist.  -Simon Black

If you look at the promises the federal government has made with Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid—the current value of those promises is $124T. It is unreasonable to make these promises. It’s insane. If you took the collective value of every privately owned asset in the country, it comes to $99T. The government has not only promised more money than it’s ever going to have, it has promised more money than we all collectively have. Or consider this nonsense: Americans hold $1T in student loans! Are you kidding me? Does it make sense to anybody to spend $75,000 to become a dental hygienist? It has become the Fed’s job to make this huge lie—the idea that we can borrow and spend our way to prosperity—the truth. –Porter Stansberry

The middle class, the working class … the ones who got screwed.

John Lennon gave us the clues and the warnings back in the seventies:

The Middle Class is tired of the bullshit.  Tired of being screwed. Tired of not being able to afford necessities AND luxuries.
