Social Security is DOOMED

Special Clubs

Are you tired of entering your phone number for all of these "loyalty" programs? How did those ever even start? The modern day may have seemed to start with flyer miles. But what about the green stamp books? Did you know they reward program started in ancient Egypt? What about the earliest ones here in the States in the 1700's? Seems like today's programs have a lot of pay-to-play-to-get-discounts feel to them instead of a reward system. Do today's programs buy YOUR loyalty or is it just an annoying step to save 5%? Would you skip the step to stay out of the data collection loop? Join us for a "Special Clubs" discussion on this episode of The Works.

Gaming the System

As we navigate social media/podcast space, can you game they system by a clever title? Does a trending word help get listens? Did you know that Area 51 just had a round of earthquakes? Did alien technology cause it? We also discuss when people give you advice. What was the best advice you were given? Join us for a myriad of topics in true ADHD fashion on the "Gaming The System" episode of The Works.

Social Security is DOOMED

With Millenials and GenZ finding alternative work or choosing to work part time, Social Security is DOOMED. The pool of workers entering retirement is larger that the generations working and contributing. Even with Social Security, many folks will still have to find their "second career" after retirement. What drives the need for a next phase of work? Were you laid off? Is your job now obsolete? Are you retiring? What type of job or career would you chose? Join us for a discussion of why "Social Security is Doomed" on this episode of The Works.

Off Brand

Do you remember the "Generic" brand from years ago? It was a simple white label with bold black lettering. Nothing screamed that you were frugal more than that! Now, we have store brands that are supposed to be the same as named brand...but secretly are not. For example, PopTarts....there is no equal!!! Join us for a discussion of "Off Brand" on this episode of The Works.

Hot For Teacher

What are some jobs today that you never imagined would be jobs? Younger generations want to be influencers or content creators. Will a college education be required for "jobs" that are created in the future? Are you considered gainfully employed as a content creator? How are you paid? What happens to social security if the newer generation isn't paying into the system as boomers and Gen X retire? There are some people that are STILL paying on their student loans and aren't working in their chosen profession. Join us for an employment conversation on "Hot For Teacher" episode of The Works.
