With hopes of avoiding Social Security insolvency, the Trump administration is reportedly evaluating all available options, including raising the retirement age.

“I think everything’s being considered, will be considered,” U.S. Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank Bisignano said on “Mornings with Maria” Thursday.

“Remember, most people told you and I Social Security wasn’t going to be around,” he continued. “And so the generations that are coming in will probably have a different set of rules than we had.”

Debt consolidation has emerged as the dominant driver of home equity borrowing and a key theme that loan officers reported — 81% of loan officers told HomeLight that they’ve seen a spike in homeowners borrowing against their equity, with 29% qualifying this as a significant increase and 52% calling it a slight increase.

In 2025, 87% of loan officers told HomeLight that debt consolidation was the main reason borrowers accessed their equity through home equity lines of credit (HELOCs). The figure was a nearly identical 88% in 2024.

At the same time, many borrowers are waiting for mortgage rates to fall further before making a move. More than one-third of lenders said buyers remain fixated on the possibility of rates dropping to…

Anna Daroy served as interim chief operating officer and later as interim director general of the Institute of Directors for a year from October 2018.

In a report on Thursday, the Insolvency Service said that six months after leaving her role at the IoD, she secured two maximum-value £50,000 Bounce Back Loans from separate banks for management consultancy Globepoint Associates Ltd.

Globepoint Associates Ltd went into liquidation in March 2023, with both Bounce Back Loans outstanding, said the Insolvency Service.

Kevin Read, chief investigator at the Insolvency Service, said: “Anna Daroy abused the Bounce Back Loan Scheme by obtaining two loans when…

The Federal Reserve on Wednesday announced its first interest rate cut of 2025, and the central bank hinted at two more coming before the year’s end.

While this is welcome news for borrowers, it’s not so good news for savers. Since banks look to the Fed’s benchmark rate when setting their own interest rates for consumers, this means that the returns on savings accounts will start trickling down, too.

But even though the return on my high-yield savings account will likely go down, I plan on keeping it open. Here’s why.

Why I’m keeping my high-yield savings account

People often flock to high-yield savings accounts in a rising-rate environment. Though that’s not the case today, I can still make a case for keeping my account.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta speaks at a press conference in February 2024.

A coalition of 22 attorneys general are opposing the Trump administration‘s proposed regulation that could narrow eligibility for a popular student loan forgiveness program for government and non-profit workers.
