- Episode 13 - A Deep Dive into the Social Security Increase and South Florida's Rich History Bill Monty 14:35
What happens when the cost of living outpaces your Social Security checks? We're diving into the nitty-gritty of the recent Medicare and Social Security cost hikes, set to take effect in 2024. Brace yourself, because premiums are projected to jump by $9.80 and there's a 3.2% cost of living increase in the pipeline. But for many of our low-income seniors, these figures don't paint the full picture. As your trusty guides, we're calling on Congress to pay attention to the reality of these changes for seniors and find a solution. Plus, we're dissecting the flawed approach to calculating cost of living increases and how the government shutdown debate may further complicate things.
But it's not all doom and gloom! We're hitting the sunny lanes of South Florida, sharing tales of yesteryear. Ever wondered what Al Capone and Meyer Lansky were up to down south? Or perhaps you're intrigued by the ghost stories that swirl around Fort Lauderdale's theaters? We've got all that and more. We'll even take you along the Fort Lauderdale Strip and visit some nude beaches – if you're brave enough! Consider this your sneak peek into our upcoming show, Tales from South Florida with Bill Monty, launching in 2024. So, buckle up and join us for the journey – remember, kindness is key. See you on the flip side!
