One more notch on his belt, that there’s hardly room for more…

I’d guess that less than half the readers here even knew about the Trump Accounts before your post. The exception would be the Alien-Birth-Tourists, they know all about it and may attempt to exploit.
I’ve been reminding my wife & daughter about it for months, to pass along this benefit to the people they know that have newborns – they’re reluctant because of potential pushback/doxing/spit, just for saying his name. Wow.

If someone is going to give you $1000, take it.

I would Not put any other money in a Trump Account however.

Much much better options available for most dependents.

July 4, 2026
Washington, D.C. – The U.S. Department of the Treasury today announced the official launch of the full Trump Accounts app, giving American families a new way to view, manage, and grow their children’s stake in the nation’s economic future.
On the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, the U.S. Department of the Treasury is marking a historic milestone with the nationwide launch of Trump Accounts, an innovative savings and investment platform designed to ensure that future generations of Americans own a stake in the American economy from day one.
“Trump Accounts are now live, giving every child a stake in the American Dream from day one thanks to President Trump,” said U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, “The Trump Accounts app is now updated with the full suite of account capabilities: you can start funding your child’s account, exploring financial education modules, and more.”
Trump Accounts will help families build long-term financial security while deepening their understanding of how our markets work.

We who have been half dollar roll searchers are quite delighted with our ROI (basis for 90% finds under $1.50/oz ; 40% finds about 3.50/ oz.
I have been amazed how much silver I accumulated Pre-2020 by roll searching.
In the mid -to-late-2010s I bought SPSs under spot averaging $15/oz
I considered these pretty much risk free uses of my fun money.
Just using common sense buying when no one else sees value has worked well for me. And I had a lot of fun doing it.
I have investment advisors that handle the stocks, thank you.
Diversify, diversify, diversify!
And to each his/her own.
America – what a GREAT country!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your right ACA, but not if you sell. Or play a run up and sell and rinse and repeat. Sorry made a boatload on Ag stock, Silver Wheaton $2.92 2008.., now Wheaton Precious Metals @$115…….sold junk for 55x face & traded and silver has run in channels for years, buy abiut $18 dump at higher $20s went on for years. Yes, long term annual numbers maybe unsexy, but there was a lot of action and money made buy low sell higher,,rinse and repeat, no did NOT t sell,all in January 2026…but a lot and major profits…..and CC gold in partial,trade. Main problem with silver so damn bulky….mint purchases these days are not always a good investment….. and the ones that are you can’t get…and the ones your think are…ARE NOT

HAPPY 4th Of July to all and 250th BD and a lot more….talk,bad invesment US stamps, particularly modern US postage….except forever stuff negative prognosis
