All right, listen up to me, everybody. Interest rates are not going to last. They're going down, down, down, down, down. So I want you to take advantage of the 12 to 17 month CD at myalliant.com. You have to look at it. So much higher than treasuries. I cannot even tell you. So currently, they are paying for amounts of $1,000 to $74,999, 4.25 APR for $75,000 and up. It is 4.30.
4.25. 4.25.
4.25. We are strong.
And everything it takes. We are strong. We are one.
March 23rd, 2025. Welcome everybody to the Women in Money podcast, as well as everybody smart enough to listen. Suzy Oh here. And for those of you who are new and you're wondering, what is this podcast all about? It's very simple. It's a podcast that tackles your fears and puts you in control of your financial future. Just that simple.
And on Sundays, which today happens to be, we have Susie's school. So if I were you, I would definitely get out my pen and paper. Or you can do a pencil if you want. Because you're going to have a quiz today. 35 questions on a topic I've picked for you.
But before I do that, I do want to talk to you about one of your greatest questions lately, or should I say your greatest fear, which is, Susie, are they going to cut Social Security? What's going to happen to Social Security? Susie, I can't afford it. They can't cut my Social Security. It's all the money that I have. Slow down and relax.
Everything that's happening currently with Social Security is about them cutting people working for Social Security, cutting staff, closing offices. There has been no talk at all about cutting benefits. Now, does that mean in the future there won't be some talk about rearranging benefits just like they did, I think it was in 1983, when they raised the full retirement age from 65 to 67?
Do you remember that? But all of you already receiving benefits, your benefits weren't cut. It was for future years, future people. So I would imagine that that is a probability. I have no doubt that they're going to raise the full retirement age.
