Social Security 2027: 10 states where retirees will get the largest cost-of-living adjustments

The Social Security payment boost happens every year and is known as a ‘cost-of-living adjustment,’ or COLA, and is meant to balance out inflation and increasing prices over time Getty Images The 3.6 percent Social Security increase in 2027 will lead to big boosts in some states…and not so much in others. Monthly payments will go up the most for retirees in California - $375.15 on average, according to the most recent state-level benefit data from the Social Security Administration . The payment boost happens every year and is known as a “cost-of-living adjustment,” or COLA, and is meant to balance out inflation and increasing prices over time. “ Social Security will implement this cost-of-living adjustment for 76 million Americans, giving them greater financial stability,” Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank J. Bisignano said in October. Delaware will see the second-biggest increase at $335.39, followed by Washington ($334.64), Maryland ($332.54) and Pennsylvania ($327.71).

New York building collapse exposes gentrification anger in Black community: "It's just all about making money"

New York, New York - Winston Bowen quietly watched as New York firefighters looked for survivors in the rubble of a collapsed building in Brooklyn, after a deadly tragedy that he blamed on "careless" developers leading rapid gentrification. The 54-year-old's assessment was echoed by others who gathered Thursday opposite the grim scene in Flatbush, a mostly Black neighborhood, where a three-story building plunged into a neighboring excavation site. Investigations have only just begun, but Bowen said he believed the property owners may have cut corners in their plans to construct a nine-story bu...

‘Wait Until They Realize They Make 40% Less Than NYC’: Florida Newcomer Faces Backlash After Saying an Apartment in the State Is Cheaper Than in New York

There are many things that may set off the alarms of some people living in a specific city, yet one that really makes people turn their heads, raise their eyebrows, and even gasp is when someone says something that isn’t entirely true. To give you a quick example, one person on social media claimed that living in Miami, Florida, might be cheaper and more comfortable than in New York. What that person was not expecting was a wave of backlash, as those who live in the city think that it is much worse.

Whatever Happened to Crazy Eddie Electronics Stores?

For New Yorkers who watched television during the 1970s and 1980s, Crazy Eddie was almost impossible to miss. A fast-talking salesman waved his arms in front of walls of stereos and televisions, promising electronics bargains with a slogan that became part of the region’s popular culture: “His prices are insane!” The commercials ran constantly, and their spokesman was so convincing that many viewers thought they were watching the real Crazy Eddie.

Collections are coming for millions of student loans in default

A long-postponed reckoning could be coming soon for millions of student loan borrowers who are now faced with garnished wages and seized tax refunds as soon as next year. Since pandemic forbearance finally expired last year, more than 9 million borrowers already are in default, owing a collective $234 billion, and millions more are late in their payments. Those borrowers are likely to face severe collection measures such as wage garnishment and seizure of tax refunds next year. Such collections have been repeatedly paused, most recently this past January.

Buying a NYC home now takes nearly 15 years to pay off — but these 5 neighborhoods buck the trend

New Yorkers wondering whether to keep renting or finally take the plunge into homeownership may want to look toward Queens — where buying can pay off in less than three years. In Rego Park, homeowners could come out ahead financially over renting after just 2.8 years, compared with a staggering 14.5 years citywide, according to a new StreetEasy report . And despite stubbornly high mortgage rates , several other neighborhoods across Queens and The Bronx offer buyers a chance to beat renters financially in fewer than five years. Queens neighborhoods offer some of NYC’s shortest timelines for buying a home to become more affordable than renting. Getty Images The findings come as New York City’s housing market faces a growing inventory crunch, with the number of homes for sale falling to its lowest October level since 2017. Across the five boroughs, just 17,496 homes were on the market last month, down 3.1% from a year earlier, according to StreetEasy. The shortage has been particularly punishing for entry-level buyers, with Manhattan’s pipeline of relatively affordable new condos projected to plunge 74% by 2029, as developers increasingly focus on luxury properties. Meanwhile, the median sale price reached $900,000, meaning a buyer putting
