Do they mean 2% of the total amount you contribute to FICA (meaning 98% of what you contribute still goes to FICA), or do they mean of the 7.51% of your paycheck that you contribute to FICA, 2% goes into a personal account and 5.51% goes into FICA? I was under the impression that it was the latter.
I was thinking that if the US economy plunges into disaster, gold and Euros would be the only thing left with value. Plus, gold and foreign currency (I think) puts nothing into the hands of the stockmarket swindlers.
6. Bush bases his SS plan on Chile plan...where the average retiree
now gets an average whopping $100/mo. on retirement.
Or maybe the question, "How much retirement money are any of the Retirees from Silverado S&L receiving monthly...after Neil Bush gutted those accounts in the 80's?" Those were 'private accts,' right?
