Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it? Re-post with your quote or drop your take below.

I don’t know. I’m nearing 70. Would it be instead of SS? If so, would it be equal to that? The question makes the mere idea appealing but I have no idea what it looks like, the amount(s?), how funded. Is there a universal view into those questions you can direct me to? Thank you.🙏

The amount is widely debated—common proposals range from around $500 to $1,000+ per month per adult, depending on how it’s funded and what it replaces. There is no single agreed-upon figure.

Funding ideas typically include a mix of: • taxes on income, consumption, or capital gains • revenues from a sovereign wealth fund (public investment returns) • some proposals, broader fiscal or monetary policy approaches There is no single agreed-upon model yet.
