That's because $7.6 trillion of US government debt is held by foreign entities in countries like Japan and China. "It is a cliff. We see the cliff. It's about 10 years out. We're going 60 miles an hour," Dimon said. The US's mountain of debt hasn't gone anywhere — and that's a big problem for markets around the world, Jamie Dimon warned at a panel decision in Washington with the Bipartisan Policy Center on Friday.

This is the same time as the Social Security crisis is going to hit.

Just for fun, let's pick a date. How about Friday, September 29, 2034. That is the last business day in the fiscal year.  Maybe there will be a stock market crash that day, or interest rates will soar above 20%?
