Tons of cards have zero fees. Some offer rewards and benefits at no real cost. I have for nearly a decade used a card with 1% back on purchases and 1% back on payments. Running all my usual spending through that and then just paying it off has net me a lot of money in that time that I just use for statement credit.

Current social security taxes go straight to current social security stuff. Its a paygo system. It used to be something like 15 wage earners per current social security recipient, but as of when I last read up on it, that was down to 3 to 1 and continuing to slide towards the red.
The first social security recipient paid in like $15 before retiring and then collected like $20k or something before dying.

Is gutting the federal government working yet? Is the swamp drained? Is the winning complete? Are my bigoted piece of shit nazi flag flying neighbors satisfied yet?
That’s some bullshit people love to parrot. Its meaningless.
The same group that wants small government also has no problem asking you to donate at church and also to Jimmy’s gofundme.
Then that contracted AI gets used for customer service at a public facing federal agency.
Meanwhile, Caesar was the one to eventually make it an empire instead. Kind of funny.
Microsoft laid off 9,000 people recently. Its also not their first time. Fuck microsoft.
The threes thing is made-up bullshit. Boomer bullshit actually.
Those are interests. I wouldn’t call it hype.
