We’re about to enter the world of a new administration. We can expect tons of policy changes in the era of Trump 2.0, and while we have solid sneak peeks into what could be, we don’t know what’s going to happen on the economic front (or any other) until it happens. So don’t succumb to floating speculation. Align yourself with concrete facts. This can be tough when you’re deeply concerned about the future of things like Social Security.
“I can’t stress this enough: there is a difference between a policy being floated, and a policy being enacted,” Orman wrote. “Perhaps the most unsettling part for many of you is the mention of reducing Social Security (and Medicare) benefits. Please don’t let that concern push you to change your strategy for delaying your start date to collect benefits. Be patient. Floating is not policy.”
It’s easy to get caught up in the past or the possible future. You may think, “Oh I should have invested in XYZ last year,” or “I really must up my investing game – maybe next year.”
