Social Security pays out negative returns. Meaning you're guaranteed to receive lower returns from it in contrast to whatever capital you invest. A person could do better putting their money in a bank account that pays out 0.000001% APY. UBI is the same as social security. You're guaranteed to receive less money than whatever you invest in it.
