Social Security Cost of Living Increase!?

[LDUBS]

Got an email from SSN saying there will be a 2.5% COLA increase -- at least for many. I guess every little bit helps. Won't know exactly how much, if any, until early December I guess.

Too bad it can't keep up with the cost of inflation.

Ummmmm.....since when did the SSA start talking through emails? I'm pretty sure they told me/us in previous mailings that they will never converse with an email.

They will send notifications, not account info, via email. I think I did sign up for email notices.

True.

When I receive e-mails from any place (Soc Security, VA, banks) I NEVER use any included links in the e-mails to go see what the e-mail is notifying me about. I always open a new tab and log in with however I have that account set up.

WOO WOO!
Like you said, every "LITTLE BIT" helps, guess the new house, the new boat, and the new car is going to have to wait a while! LOL!

Va disability/ retirement pay increased the same 2.5%. Sure seems like prices have gone up more than that but something is better than nothing.
