I hope you do not buy his claptrap.
Bessent has a net worth of at least $500 million. His financial disclosure to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics prior to his confirmation as Treasury Secretary showed that he had assets — some of which he shared with his husband, former New York City prosecutor John Freeman — of at least $521 million.
His qualifications show he sure knows about raising the standard of living.
But not yours.

And what used to be your Social Security can give it a new coat of paint. You have nothing, but you are happy as you stand in line to kiss the ass.
