Welcome to the Jill on Money Show. It's Thursday, January 2nd. I don't know if a lot of people are working today. I am. We are. And I know that's kind of a drag to come back after a nice break. I took, you know, almost a week and a half off. God, it was amazing. And we're here still answering financial questions, whether

it's 2024 or 2025. We're here for you. So if you've got something going on, if you are really

wondering how to start the year off on a positive note, go to our website, jillonmoney.com,

click that contact us button and complete the form. If you want to come on the air live with us, check the box.

Mark will do everything else.

All right, let's get this show started.

We're starting with a bang, I'll tell you.

We are going to talk to Will, who is speaking to us from South Korea.

I've been in the military for 31 years now, really got a late start in

investing as far as like the Thrift Savings Program that the military offers, really just

in the last few years that I've gotten into that. So I'm kind of maxing it out because I can

and it's available to me.

But with 31 years in and looking to retire at around the 34 or 36 year mark, my pension's going to be relatively high, 115 to 130,000 a year.

And I'm just wondering how much is too much.

Could I back off the TSP contribution a little bit?

Interesting. This is interesting. So a couple of questions, Will. Number one, are you single, partnered, married?

I'm married, just remarried about four years ago. And how old is your spouse? She is 30.

She's 39.

You see that, Mark?

This is why my friends who are 50 can't find guys, you know, because he's marrying a 39-year-old.

Okay.

That's a different program.
