I'm not a political expertise at all.
I don't really, I can see the math.

I understand that, but it does affect all the mom and pop nine to fivers that are barely scraping by anyway.
So I think the new stat is like less than 70% of Americans have $1,000 in their bank account.
Holy shit.
Or can cover an emergency of $1,000.
70%?
Yeah, something like that.
70, 72.
Yeah, something like that, which is absolutely absurd.
Again, in supposedly the richest country in the world.
Yeah, yeah, which is, again, why Fortis is I want to make wealth common because it can be.
I don't care how little you have, what your credit score is.
It can happen.
Again, if you don't have a lot of cash, if you have terrible credit, it's going to take a little more time.
But, yeah, people sitting on money from, like,
The equity in their house, they don't know how to use, but you can use that to invest with.
Or if you want to use the 401k, you can move that anywhere else.
Some jobs don't allow it, but if they offer what's called an in-service rollover, you can move that to an annuity, you know, in a private placement product.
