More people aged 60 to 78 are looking for work in America this year compared to the previous year, The Telegraph reports. The escalating cost of living is requiring that aging baby boomers change their retirement plans and get back to work – especially with the presidential election on the horizon and the potential for Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris to win that contest and continue the green energy policies of President Joe Biden that have not benefited many American workers.
The result has been a 23 percent increase from last year in job applications from Americans aged 60 to 78 on LinkedIn. Karin Kimbrough, LinkedIn’s chief economist, said the surge is attributable to people who are forced to “unretire” because inflation has devoured their savings and high interest rates have made borrowing so costly. “Central banks raised rates and that probably raised their cost of living, so I think that probably ate into their savings more than they were anticipating. In the US older workers are resuming these really aggressive job searches. They had retired, and now they’re unretiring,” Kimbrough told The Telegraph.
That uncertainty has not been helped by Kamala Harris’ vague economic plans that consist of massive spending on housing and a promise to stop “price gouging” in the grocery stores. Her tie-breaking vote in the Senate occasionally advanced inflationary legislation, such as the ‘Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
Although the Biden-Harris administration is fond of telling Americans the country has rebounded faster and better from the economic malaise of the Covid pandemic than any other G7 nation, most Americans are not getting any fiscal satisfaction from the data and are feeling left behind. While the Biden-Harris administration promised an abundance of green economy jobs, 40 percent of the programs are currently on hold due to inflation and a waning interest in electric vehicles by the automobile industry.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
