The people I felt most sorry for were those who basically had saved however there children had made some poor decisions. Essentially they were helping raise their grandchildren. The people who were healthiest was the group in the middle, they had savings and weren't stressed with finances or raising their grandchildren. Frankly the world is changing fast it makes no sense for 70+ year old people to be running things as they can't phantom the disruptive forces that are hitting them.

When you have 4 houses (or are pretending you do) just buying one more house isn't a great use of money. If you own ZERO houses paying off your house is definitely arguably the smartest thing you can do, or at least should be a heavy focus financially. I don't think these guys know how out of touch they are or how ridiculous they sound to the average person, or how horrifically idiotic some of their advice is from this side of the income spectrum.

H is literally Evil.

Hey Mr. Fink, the miracles of science and medicine do not help much when you do physical work in cold/heat, hazardous environments all your life. How about letting people that work where there is no retirement, no 401K. let them contribute more than the $7000 per year IRA, or Roth or traditional. America is a shit show

A good long term investment is buying a home. Oh wait, you're buying up all the homes.

He owns the dialogue. We’re being played people. Corruption at its best.

Working longer is much easier for white collar workers than it is for blue collar workers. Manual labor takes a toll on the body. It's the blue collar worker that really needs social security. Many white collar workers do not. So this idea that people who work hard manual labor jobs can keep doing them into their 70's and 80's is ridiculous. Yes, if you have a cushy white collar job wearing a suit sitting behind a desk, you can easily do that until you drop dead.

He talks about the $34 trillion dollar deficit, but he should have used the term 'debt'. The deficit is the annual difference between inflows and outflows, while the debt is the total accumulation of those deficits over time.

"We all need purpose in life"👍

Social security is the problem not the answer. If people could invest the 12.4% paid as SS taxes into a private account and have that grow over their lifetime, there's their retirment savings. Instead, people are forced into a ponzi scheme and may get a pittance in SS payments

Buffet trusts it. EVERY remotely rich person I know trusts it. But not for us, we're the peasants who can't be given any choice. They should offer an opt out and put that Soc sec money into an IRA, 401k rollover, or something as an option. The little people are adult enough to be slammed in jail when we're bad, we're also adult enough to make our own decisions about what works for our future.

Action speak louder than words. His body language is revealing him. What glitters is not always gold. His choices in his actions are available for anyone to search. Of course a coin has 2 sides, which side is he pitching to sell. And what are you buying into. There is a saying, ask questions, lots of them, and that pit in your gut will never lead you wrong. The answer will reveal itself doing some introspection on what you want to buy into. And who is this "we* when he says, we have to have these conversations. Also the debt he speaks of. He never ask the tax payers if they wanted a say in paying back the reckless spending created by others in positions. Read between the lines, and ask what he is not saying. As his actions align for his benefit. Anyone watch? He sure did a few misdirects in his answers. Watch the movements of his body language. They say a lot. Most conversation is not the words, but the actions of the body. We're trained to listen, but we can learn to be keen observers to the subtleties within the conversation. What roars is not always the king of the jungle (or a lion).
