Gerri Willis Breaks Down Trump’s New Investment Accounts for Families

Gerri Willis dives into the details of Trump’s proposed investment account plan, offering a $1,000 federal contribution for every U.S. citizen born between December 31, 2024, and January 1, 2029. The funds would grow tax-deferred in an account tied to the stock market, available for college, a first home, or starting a business. Willis explains how parents and employers can contribute thousands more each year, how accounts could grow to $200,000 by age 17, and the broader implications for retirement savings, financial literacy, and economic opportunity.
