2025 Medicare Changes Every year there are changes to Medicare Advantage Plans and Social Security. Most years the changes are not dramatic. But this year the change in your Medicare Advantage plan may be dramatic. If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan, do not assume that your plan will remain the same for 2025. Because the annual out-of-pocket spending for Part D prescription drugs were capped at $2,000, the insurance companies have redesigned their plans and have also cancelled approximately 2,000,000 people. You need to make sure you are not one of those people who were cancelled. In addition, if…
Mortgage rates continued their upward climb this week, leaving demand essentially flat in the stagnant housing market.

Most economists who had to describe healthy, stable growth would end up largely describing today’s GDP numbers. The economy expanded at an annual inflation-adjusted rate of 2.8% in the third quarter of 2024, after expanding at 3.0% in the previous quarter. Outside of volatile inventory build ups, economic growth actually accelerated. Income growth from continued employment growth and wages outpacing prices is driving consumer spending. U.S. companies prove to be highly competitive in global markets across a wide spectrum of goods and services. Businesses continue to invest at fairly high levels to take advantage of new opportunities in a highly…

This was done with recurring donations she had unwittingly signed up for on her cell phone. EM had no idea of what she had given every day for months. Her concerned daughter (CD) had looked at the statements from the financial advisors her mom had chosen without CD’s knowledge and was horrified. EM had funds, but not enough to take care…
