Trump Accounts: Government Seed Money for Kids or a Market-Driven Gamble?

TL;DR Summary
A Super Bowl ad from Invest America promotes 'Trump Accounts,' government seed money for children born in 2025–2028 with a $1,000 initial deposit and up to $5,000 in annual contributions; accounts track stock market growth and can include employer contributions, with the program launching around July 2025. Experts warn the seed money alone is unlikely to cover college or a down payment, and results depend heavily on market performance.
