In reply to the discussion: Are you better off than you were four years ago? [View all]ProudMNDemocrat
(16,873 posts)2. Hell yes. We are better off now than 4 years ago at this time.
Both health wise and financially.
When the Stock Market was taking a nose dive, my husband moved a substantial amount from the Market to Money Market accounts to avoid losing what investments we did have. Since the Market has been on the upswing, he had our Investment planner move monies back. Our IRAs are showing gains. We still have some money in Money Market accounts just to be sure.
Health wise, we both survived COVID with little to no symptoms due to the vaccines and boosters that followed. Joe Biden has seen to that.

And it will be progressively better once we give Biden/Harris a solid working Congress.

Better now. Vaxed to the max, can go out in relative safety. My turncoat Senator is leaving. Inflation slowed massively.

The better question: Are you better off than you would have been if Trump had won 4 years ago?
