Summary
In this episode of Ask Suze Anything, Suze gives us an update on how she and KT faired during Hurricane Dorian. Then, she answers questions from Women & Money listeners: Tiffany, Liz, and Erica. They ask:
- How do you save for retirement when your employer doesn’t do matching contributions to your 401(k)?
- If my company doesn’t offer matching for Roth 401(k)’s, am I better off funding my own Roth IRA?
- Should you fund your own ROTH IRA when your company doesn’t offer a matching ROTH 401(k)?

| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. I want you all to take advantage of the incredible interest rates that a |
| 0:05.7 | Lyon Credit Union is currently offering 4.5% for a three-month certificate, 4.75% for a six-month |
| 0:15.2 | certificate. But best of all, in my opinion, is 5% for a one-year certificate of deposit. |
| 0:24.4 | You can also purchase these in a retirement account. So go to my |

| 1:23.9 | Welcome to another edition of Ask Susie Anything. And yes, you are asking me and asking me, |
| 1:35.6 | am I okay? How did I make out with the hurricane? Is Susie in Katie's house okay? How are you Susie? |
| 1:44.6 | So before I answer your financial questions today, let me at least answer or address your concerns |
| 1:51.3 | about me, my home, the island, and everything. Obviously, since I'm recording this and I'm |
| 1:57.8 | recording it while I'm on the island that I live on, we are okay. This storm came in and it happened |

| 2:15.8 | and we had some heavy winds on the island that I live on, the workers of this island all happened |
| 2:23.9 | to have families and they live in free port. And they left this island to go to free port to be |
| 2:32.7 | with their families because they did not want their families to be alone. They not only went to |
| 2:38.8 | free port, they went to the abacose, they went to Nassau and yes, some even went to Marsh. |
| 2:49.4 | I can tell you that what those people have been through, I don't even have words to tell you the |
| 2:58.2 | stories that they're coming back here with. Obviously, Marsh Harbor was totally destroyed, |
| 3:04.8 | the abacose was totally destroyed, free port, some areas were totally destroyed, not as badly, |

| 3:19.4 | with the workers back to this island. But what's very fascinating about it is even though they are |
