Why Your Social Security Raise Feels So Small

Yes I am a big fan of this too 3.7 % not 2.7% ok what’s the point of ours being in this situation we work hard all our lives- reach ours Ages gaps - okay- the upper middle class in there ages of 90/ towards who take care of their Health Care Situation no problem withs themselves of Illness 2025/🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💕💕💕💕🥰🤔-point truer

sick of low % raise while landlords raise rentals up to 13%...not enough

welfare always has enough

Because it is insignificant compared to the price of inflation on everything, from insurance to food to gas to electricity.

it a raise, say thank you and move on.

the raise in reality if figured properly should be more like 3.2 percent....

social security I'm struggling rent is high electric keeps going up can't keep up with rising prices my check isn't built for this Drs copays $40.00 all the time

because SSA still uses the wrong CPI?

because it IS

Every time I get a cola raise, everything else goes up my Car Insurance renters insurance. My rent buddy knows that you’re getting a rent increase and I’m on a fixed income and they end up giving me a small raise, but everybody else increases their bills and it ends up putting me in a hole every year, so the colas hurt me they don’t help me in anywaycompany shouldn’t be able to do that to people the first of every year because they know they’re going to get a little extra money and everybody wants their part and what they give us doesn’t cover it.
