    The brand-new “Trump account” is a tax-deferred savings option for American children created by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. I break down who's eligible for up to $1,000 in free government contributions, how these accounts work, and how they stack up against other popular savings vehicles like 529 plans, IRAs, custodial accounts, and regular brokerage accounts. If you're a parent or grandparent thinking about the best way to jumpstart your child's financial future, you'll want to tune in for my honest comparison of the Trump account's pros, cons, and quirks, plus tips on making the most of these new opportunities. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Trump accounts for children, including eligibility and benefits, compared to other savings options. [04:52] Invest in low-cost US index funds for a child's account. [08:41] 529 accounts offer conservative investment options and potential benefits for education savings. [11:59] Consider a regular brokerage account instead of a Trump account, especially if it's not for college. What Parents Need to Know About the New Trump Account Saving for your child's future can be complicated, and with the introduction of the new “Trump account” via the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, parents have another option to consider. In a recent episode of the Retire with Ryan podcast, host Ryan Morrissey breaks down the ins and outs of this novel account.  What is the Trump Account? The Trump account, established by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, is a new type of tax-deferred investment account specifically designed for American children. It bears similarities to familiar accounts like IRAs and 529s in that all investments inside the Trump account grow tax-deferred, letting parents and children potentially maximize compounding returns.  Eligible children, those born between January 1st, 2025, and December 31st, 2028, are entitled to a $1,000 government contribution just for opening the account, regardless of parental income. That's free money that, when invested early, could grow substantially over time. How Does the Trump Account Work? Parents (or guardians) can contribute up to $5,000 per child per year (indexed for inflation starting 2027) until the child turns 18, and employers can contribute up to $2,500 annually, also not counted as taxable income for the child. The account must be opened at investment firms, which are required to limit investment options to low-cost index funds (with expense ratios under 0.10%), such as S&P 500, total stock market, or similar broad-market funds. Once the child turns 18, they gain full access to all the assets in the account. Investments in the account benefit from tax-deferred growth, and withdrawals are taxed at favorable capital gains rates (15% or 20%) rather than ordinary income rates. How Do Trump Accounts Compare to Other Savings Options? Traditional & Roth IRAs: IRAs, including Roth IRAs, require earned income to contribute, posing a barrier for most children. While Roth IRAs trump Trump accounts for long-term tax benefits (withdrawals are tax-free), children generally can't access this unless they have income from work. Also, traditional IRAs add tax deductions but are taxed as ordinary income on withdrawal, compared to the Trump account's capital gains treatment. 529 College Savings Plans: 529s are tailored for college expenses, offering tax-free withdrawals for qualified education costs and sometimes state tax deductions. Plus, investment options can become more conservative as your child nears college age, something currently unavailable in Trump accounts, which are stock-only (at least for now). If used for non-educational purposes, 529s face ordinary income tax and penalties, whereas Trump accounts are taxed at capital gains rates for any withdrawal purpose. Brokerage & Custodial Accounts (UGMA/UTMA): A plain taxable brokerage in the parents' name offers flexibility, letting parents control access and investment options, paying minimal taxes on dividends each year. Custodial accounts shift tax liability to the child but must legally transfer to the child between ages 18 and 25, depending on state laws. Notably, assets in a child's name weigh more heavily against them on financial aid forms than if held by the parent. Who Should Consider Opening a Trump Account? If your child will be born between 2025 and 2028, opening a Trump account is almost a no-brainer to snag the free $1,000. But for ongoing contributions, think about your goals: Saving for college? Stick to a 529 plan for tax-free education withdrawals and more investment flexibility. Want to help your child start life with a nest egg for any purpose? Trump accounts work, but remember your child gets full control at 18. Prefer more flexibility or control over when and how your child accesses the funds? Explore regular or custodial brokerage accounts. The Trump account is an interesting addition to the range of savings vehicles for children, especially thanks to the initial government contribution and low-cost investment options. Still, its quirks, like the child's access at 18 and limited investment choices, mean it won't be a perfect fit for every family. Analyze your family's needs, long-term goals, and how much control you wish to maintain before making your move.

    Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science James Lawless is strongly encouraging students and their families to visit susi.ie to see if they're eligible for grant support because of expanded eligibility criteria. Undergraduate students whose household's reckonable income is under €115,000 may be eligible for financial support. Students do not need to have their Leaving Cert results or to have accepted a course to apply. Minister Lawless said: " I am very aware of the costs for students and families when attending further and higher education. That is why my department expanded eligibility for grants by increasing income thresholds to provide greater support. Undergraduate students whose household's reckonable income is under €115,000 may now be eligible for financial support". "These improvements are long-term sustainable improvements which mark a significant step towards easing the financial burden on further and higher education students," he added. Budget 2025 provided substantial improvements to the Student Grant Scheme, including: An increase to the income threshold for the special rate of grant from €26,200 to €27,400 in line with increases in social welfare rates. An increase to all other maintenance and student contribution grant thresholds by at least 15%. An increase to the income deduction for student earnings outside of term time from €7,925 to €8,424, effective for the 2025/26 academic year. An expansion of the eligibility criteria to allow students who have certain immigration permissions to apply for grants. An Increase to the Postgraduate Fee Contribution threshold to €64,315. Also, the Part-Time Fee Scheme for Specified Undergraduate Courses 2025 will see over 100 courses eligible, an increase from 62. A full list of the courses is available on www.susi.ie, and the income threshold to avail of support has also increased to €64,315. Minister Lawless said: "All of these improved supports take effect from September this year. I would strongly urge students and parents to visit the SUSI website on www.susi.ie for further information and to find out if they are eligible for a grant." Students who are planning to attend further or higher education in the 2025/26 academic year can access www.susi.ie to check eligibility and/or make an application for grant support.

    Canada's outdated capital gains policies are driving entrepreneurs and investors away. We need competitive tax reform to keep talent and investment here, building the businesses of tomorrow.We have just 33 small businesses per 1,000 people vs 124 in the US. Fixing our capital gains system could help us close this gap with the US and create hundreds of thousands of new jobs.Modern capital gains reform will unleash Canadian innovation, create more high-paying employment, and ensure our world-class graduates build their companies here, not elsewhere.GoalsTo ensure a prosperous, sustainable, and growing economy, Canada needs a thriving private sector that invests in new businesses. A strong environment for entrepreneurship creates jobs, drives GDP growth, and ensures economic mobility for all. In recent years however, entrepreneurship, and consequently private sector employment, has been slow despite an increasing population.One factor driving this change is that Canada's capital gains tax policies make it significantly less rewarding to start a business compared to other jurisdictions. To reverse this trend and reinvigorate our private sector, we must revise our outdated policies to align with global standards.Our targets:* Increase SMBs per 1000 people over the age of 18 from 33 to 62 to get half of the US rate of 124.* Increase the number of early-stage financing rounds (Pre-seed, Seed, Series A, and Series B) for new businesses from 482 in 2024 to over 1000+ per year.* Increase investments in new businesses through industry-agnostic venture capital financing to 0.5% of GDP, up from 0.35% of GDP, to get closer to the USA's figure of 0.72% of GDP.Background and MotivationNew business formation and growth relies on people taking huge risks with their time and money. However, today in Canada the people that take these risks – entrepreneurs, early stage employees, and investors – are rewarded less than in other countries.As a result the country's best talent is driven to leave and start businesses elsewhere, where they can find easier access to funding1 and keep more of the upside if they succeed.We need to reverse this systematic issue. By rewarding investors that put their capital at risk and supporting entrepreneurs who put their livelihoods on the line to create new companies we can create a strong and resilient economy.All companies begin as small and medium businesses (SMBs) and the formation and growth of these SMBs is essential to a country's economic success both through driving the quality of the labour market and creating opportunities for productivity growth.In Canada, SMBs accounted for ~64% of private sector employment and contributed to half of all net new jobs added last year2. These work opportunities support upward income mobility, lead to more capital being reinvested into local communities, and are particularly valuable for traditionally disadvantaged populations3 4 5.In addition, SMBs represent a significant portion of the economy and have high potential for productivity improvements6. Between 2017 and 2021, SMBs contributed almost half of Canada's GDP7. As these businesses grow and scale their operations they improve efficiency and drive productivity-led growth that can be equivalent in impact to roughly 5% of a developed nation's GDP8 9.Perhaps most importantly, SMBs turn into global winners. Growing these companies into sizable businesses is how a country can win an unfair share of global markets, by creating the large, export-focused corporations that contribute an outsized value to GDP and productivity growth. To ensure the next trillion dollar companies - the equivalent of Google, Microsoft, or Meta - are built in Canada, founders must be convinced to start their companies here.So, having a healthy ecosystem of SMBs is essential to creating a strong economy, but the data shows Canada is falling behind our global peers. In the 20 years between 2003 and 2023, the total number of Canadian entrepreneurs decreased by ~100K, despite the population growing by 10 million10 11. Today, for every thousand people over the age of 18 the US has ~124 SMBs12 13. Israel, a country with less than a quarter of Canada's population, has ~7314 15, while Canada has just ~3316.A significant driver of this stagnation is outdated and uncompetitive capital gains policies that have low limits, exclude large categories of business, and contain many restrictions compared to global peers - especially the US. It is less valuable for investors to put money into Canadian businesses, making capital more scarce and it discourages entrepreneurs who know that in most cases they could receive more reward by building the same company elsewhere. This makes it difficult for any SMB to get started let alone scale.Today, Canada has two capital gains policies, to try and encourage SMB creation, the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption (LCGE) and a proposed Canadian Entrepreneur's Incentive (CEI) announced in Budget 2024 but not yet implemented. Combined, the LCGE and CEI would allow shareholders to reduce the inclusion rate of capital gains from the current 50% down to a range of 33.3%-0% to a cap of $3.25M 17 18.These policies simply can't compete with the US. The USA's Qualified Small Business Stock (QSBS) policy has a capital gains cap of $15M or ten times the original investment amount, five times higher than Canada's LCGE and CEI limit. In addition the QSBS is active today, while Canada's CEI cap has a phased approach only coming into full effect in 2029 if the policy is passed. Today in 2025, LCGE and CEI's true combined cap is only $1.25M. And while QSBS shields 100% of gains up until the policy cap for individuals and corporations, Canada's CEI would only shields 66.7% of gains for individuals.To illustrate how restrictive this is, we could imagine a company where the business is owned between founders, early employees, and various investors (see the first example below). If this business was started in 2018 and sold 7 years later today in 2025 for $100M, these risk-takers would have to pay a combined $14.7M in taxes. However, that same business with the same structure would pay no taxes in the US.The good news is that at larger scales of exit like $250m (see the second example below) the gap between Canada and the US decreases due to a more competitive basic capital gains inclusion rate in Canada. This means that if we match the QSBS's capital gains limit it could actually give the Canadian policy an edge driving more investment in the country and supercharging our SMB ecosystem. However, if we leave the policy as it stands right now companies can never get started because investors and entrepreneurs are scared away.The reason is that the QSBS rewards smaller exits - the majority of SMB outcomes - with the maximum capital gains tax value. This makes it easier for entrepreneurs, early employees, and investors to take on the risks of building a business. In fact, early-stage US investors are currently increasing their investments into new Canadian businesses, and adding in clauses that would require the Canadian business to reincorporate in the US simply to become eligible for QSBS. This means the best Canadian entrepreneurs and companies are leaving the country simply to take advantage of these rules. This decreases the health of our SMB ecosystem, prevents large companies from growing in the country and ultimately reduces tax revenue.If we want to keep our entrepreneurs, Canada's capital gains policies must become competitive with US policies.‍Beyond better gain caps and exclusion rates, the US's QSBS allows a wider range of businesses and stakeholders to benefit from the policy, with no minimum ownership requirements, increased asset value caps, and a tiered inclusion rate approach that incentivizes long-term business building. Meanwhile, Canada's CEI excludes companies in healthcare, food and beverage, and service businesses19. CEI's minimum ownership rules also exclude early employees and investors who own less than 5% of the business at the time of sale.Most importantly, while LCGE and CEI's $3.25M cap applies over a taxpayer's entire lifetime, QSBS's limits are per issuer or business. In other words, entrepreneurs, early employees, and investors can use the QSBS more favourable policy again and again for subsequent companies. This discourages repeat entrepreneurs in Canada, who statistically have a higher chance of building successful businesses, from creating a second or third company, as Canada's LCGE and CEI don't extend to new issuers20 .What Needs to Be DoneTo properly reward risk takers, Canada can fully solve our capital gains policy problems by combining the LCGE with the CEI into a simple, powerful capital gains policy that supports entrepreneurs. In particular, the new policy could become competitive by adopting three major changes:1) Expand the eligibility requirements to ensure Canadian entrepreneurs and risk takers are supported. Eligible business types should be expanded to include all industries of national interest, including healthcare clinics, clean energy, technology, etc. We should also eliminate 5% minimum ownership requirements to enable any individual or corporate entity to claim CEI deductions in accordance with the tiered approach that is used to support early-stage employees and investors.2) Improve the capital gain exclusion rate system to be globally competitive, supporting entrepreneurs and increasing investment. To prevent the draw of foreign jurisdictions and ensure that we have just as much incentive to start companies as peer countries, we should start by raising the exclusion cap to $15M gain or 10x adjusted cost basis per taxpayer, whichever is greater.3) Make structural changes to ensure these new policies scale appropriately. Amend the capital gains limit from applying per lifetime to per business to incentivize repeat entrepreneurs to continue building in Canada. Additionally, ensure that common investment structures, including Simple Agreements for Future Equity (SAFEs) and Convertible Notes, become eligible, with the holding period commencing from the date the investment is signed, not when the shares are priced and converted. So, there are no major discrepancies for startups choosing to operate in Canada compared to the US.Common QuestionsWill this only benefit tech startups?No. Canada's LCGE was originally created to support all small businesses and increase competition, which includes non-tech businesses such as fisheries and farmers. Our memo recommends expanding eligibility to all industries deemed essential, including non-tech ones, that the current CEI proposal omits, such as healthcare practitioners. In the US, SMBs of all sectors, including manufacturing, retail, wholesale, consumer, and packaged goods, benefit from the QSBS policy21.Wouldn't corporate tax breaks reduce tax income for social programs and only benefit the wealthy 1%?No, this would encourage investment in Canadian small businesses, essential for increasing corporate tax revenue that funds social programs. Businesses that receive investment can generate more jobs, pay higher wages, which help increase individual income tax revenue, and reduce withdrawals from crucial social assistance programs, such as Employment Insurance, as more companies and workers stay in Canada. This helps reduce the burden and improve access to social programs, rather than removing them.What stops foreign investors from abusing this and using Canada as a tax-sheltered haven to enrich themselves at the expense of Canadians?Maintaining Canadian incorporation, assets, residency, and operating requirements, combined with a minimum 2-year waiting period before benefits kick in, will ensure that new businesses maintain a presence in Canada, creating skilled job opportunities for Canadians and contributing to local economic growth.Why should we invest in SMBs? Aren't they risky and likely to be shut down in a few years?68% of SMBs in Canada survive and operate into their fifth year, and a further 49% of SMBs survive and operate for more than a decade22. SMBs around the world, including Canada, contribute significantly to economic output, job opportunities, and increased competition for consumers.ConclusionCanada needs to create an ecosystem that supports entrepreneurs at the earliest stages. We have one of the most educated countries globally, with the largest college-educated workforce among G7 countries23. Canadian universities are consistently ranked among the top institutions globally, world-renowned, with research labs led by leaders like Geoffrey Hinton, dubbed the “Godfather of AI,” who was recently awarded a Nobel Prize for his work in AI and ML24 25.Not only is our population talented, but they are also resourceful and hardworking. Rather than punishing them, we should reward them for taking the risks to build Canada's economy. To start, we should implement a modern capital gains policy that rewards investors, entrepreneurs and early employees.Read more here: https://www.buildcanada.com/en/memos/reward-the-risk-takers This is a public episode.

This adaptation of Pride and Prejudice is set in 2013 Cincinnati. The eldest Bennet sisters are approaching 40 and Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are country club parents who don't care that they're deep in debt. Jane and Liz end up back in Cincinnati when Mr. Bennet has a heart attack.Topics discussed include our honest criticisms of the book, the success of the class commentary, the splitting of Wick/Ham, Darcy and Liz as fuck buddies, the Catherine de Bourgh-ification of Caroline Bingley, kissing your cousin, the charade of love and performance of courtship on reality TV, ace Mary, mortgages, and gender roles in the regency era vs. early 2010s.Funniest quote: Surely, if Liz had learned that anybody in her social circle in New York had eloped with somebody transgender, she'd have greeted the news with support. She might even have felt that self-congratulatory pride that heterosexual white people are known to experience due to proximate diversity.Questions: Do you agree with our criticisms?

    MDJ Script/ Top Stories for July 9th Publish Date:  July 9th    Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, July 9th and Happy Birthday to Tom Hanks I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Austell residents rebel against proposed property tax increase Advanced voting for Public Service Democratic runoff begins Popular eatery Tin Drum expands to Kennesaw All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 1 STORY 1: Austell residents rebel against proposed property tax increase Austell residents packed the Threadmill Complex to protest a proposed 158% property tax hike, which would raise the city’s millage rate from 3.25 to 8.25 mills, generating $3.85M in revenue. City officials, including Mayor Ollie Clemons, defended the increase, citing inflation and a $1.6M budget shortfall. Finance Director Rachel Yarbrough explained the city’s reliance on gas revenue and the need for higher property taxes. Residents voiced concerns about affordability, lack of a city manager, and the sharp increase’s impact, especially on seniors. Clemons assured measures to ease the burden for older residents but emphasized the necessity of the hike to sustain city services. Two more public hearings are scheduled, with the final one on July 14. STORY 2: Advanced voting for Public Service Democratic runoff begins Advanced voting for the Democratic special primary runoff for the District 3 Public Service Commission seat began Monday and runs through July 11, with polling stations open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Keisha Sean Waites, a former Atlanta City Councilwoman, faces clean-energy advocate Peter Hubbard, with the winner advancing to challenge Republican incumbent Fitz Johnson in November. Waites led the initial primary with 47.2% of the vote but fell short of the majority needed to avoid a runoff. Eligible voters include those who voted Democratic or did not vote in the June 17 primary. Election Day is July 15, and voters must bring valid photo ID and vote at their assigned location. STORY 3: Popular eatery Tin Drum expands to Kennesaw Tin Drum Asian Kitchen has opened a new location in Kennesaw at 1155 Barrett Parkway, offering a variety of Asian dishes from China, Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Popular menu items include the Singapore curry chow mein and sesame chicken rice bowl, alongside an expansive boba tea bar featuring favorites like brown sugar pearl milk tea. Founded in 2003 by Steven Chan, the restaurant aims to inspire and delight customers with its inclusive mission. Franchise managers Taran and Ramneek Singh, longtime fans, are excited to bring Tin Drum to Kennesaw. The restaurant is open daily for lunch and dinner. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 1 STORY 4: Austell man shot, killed on Fourth of July Cobb Police are investigating the fatal shooting of Cody Chavous, 33, of Austell, in Mableton on Friday. Officers responded to reports of a shooting at 300 Concepts 21 Circle, where they found Chavous with multiple gunshot wounds. He was transported to Grady Memorial Hospital but later died. The Major Crimes Unit is leading the investigation and urges anyone with information to call 770-499-3945. STORY 5: Mableton residents could see new tax as city grapples with $9.5M county agreement Mableton Mayor Michael Owens plans to propose a special service district (SSD) tax to cover a $9.5M payment to Cobb County for police and transportation services through 2026. The SSD would levy a citywide millage rate, targeting funds specifically for public safety. Owens emphasized transparency and fairness, aiming to avoid a general property tax. The city must pay $3M by May 2026 and $6.5M by December 2026, with collections starting soon. Owens seeks a long-term deal with Cobb to stabilize costs and avoid annual renegotiations. The SSD proposal will go before the City Council within 90 days, with revenue projections expected by year-end. Break: STORY 6: Red Cross: Make an immediate difference by giving blood or platelets now The American Red Cross urges donors to give blood or platelets this summer, with Type O blood most needed. Severe weather and summer challenges can deplete supplies, making donations crucial for trauma patients and others. Donors can schedule appointments via RedCrossBlood.org, the Blood Donor App, or 1-800-RED CROSS. Those who donate by July 14 will receive Red Cross x goodr sunglasses, while donors from July 15-31 will get a Fandango Movie Reward. Upcoming Cobb County blood drives run through August, with locations including Marietta, Austell, Kennesaw, and Acworth. All blood types are needed, and donors must bring valid ID. Use RapidPass to save time by completing pre-donation steps online. STORY 7: Cobb EMC considering term limit extension Cobb EMC members will vote this summer on a proposed bylaw amendment to extend board term limits from four to five terms. The amendment, aimed at preventing a complete board turnover within 24 months, was approved 5-3 by the board to appear on the ballot. While some directors support the change to retain institutional knowledge, others, like Rudy Underwood, oppose it, citing prior commitments to term limits. A recent survey showed members are divided, with 49.2% favoring current limits and 43.3% supporting the extension. Voting begins in August, with the final decision at the annual meeting on Sept. 13. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break: INGLES 1 Signoff-   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.

    In this episode, we report on Texas's newly expanded film and TV incentive program, which commits $150 million annually through 2035. Gov. Greg Abbott signed the legislation to boost production grants by $100 million every two years, bringing total subsidies to $1.5 billion. Eligible projects with budgets over $1.5 million can receive 25 % of qualified in-state spending, plus additional uplifts for rural shoots, veteran hires, workforce development, and faith-based or family-friendly content. The program requires 60 % of shooting to occur in Texas and gradually raises the in-state crew threshold to 50 % by 2031. Funded through insurance and franchise taxes, the law also gives the Texas Film Commission authority to reject projects that portray the state negatively. With endorsements from Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson, and Taylor Sheridan, Texas positions itself as the next major U.S. production hub.TAGSTexas film incentives, film subsidies, Hollywood South, media coast, Greg Abbott, Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson, Taylor Sheridan, film production, cash grants, insurance tax, franchise tax, rural film grants, veteran hiring, workforce development, faith-based films, family values content, Texas film office, budget threshold, in-state crew, production incentives, state subsidies, film legislation, film locations, production tax incentives, TV production, grant qualifications, Texas filmmaking, production relocation, creative finance, podcast episode KeywordsTexas film incentivesHollywood South Texasfilm production subsidiesGreg Abbott film grantTexas media coast incentives
