Gerstner announces Dell, AMD, Salesforce, and Uber CEOs will contribute to employee children's Invest America accounts.
“last week we announced Michael Dell, Lisa Su from AMD, Mark Benioff, Dara Kausher Shahi at Uber, and incredible CEO accounts who all said, we will contribute to the accounts of the children born to our employees.”
Gerstner announces that starting July 4, 2026, every child born will receive a thousand-dollar investment account at birth.
“In 2026, this year on July 4, every child born forevermore, think about that, forevermore. This is the magnitude of Social Security.”
Gerstner announces that starting Saturday, every American child born will receive a $1,000 S&P 500 account at birth.
“The idea that starting this Saturday, every child born forevermore forevermore in the history of America will get an investment account at birth, seeded with a thousand dollars in the S and P 500 that will compound for their lifetime.”
Gerstner says billions more in corporate contributions to children's accounts are queued up beyond the $6.25 billion Dell gift.
“Of course, everybody's familiar with the $6,250,000,000 gift from the Dells, but we have Ray Dalio in Connecticut, me in Indiana, Harold Hammond in Oklahoma.”
Gerstner announces first-ever joint NYSE-Nasdaq opening bell from the Oval Office on Monday.
“I'll be at the White House on Monday for a historic joint bell ringing where the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq are coming together for the first time, and we're gonna ring the opening bell, a joint bell from the Oval Office”
