Welcome to the Jill on Money show.

It's Tuesday, April 28th, and we're here answering your financial questions.

If you've got one, all you need to do is go to our website.

That's JillonMoney.com.

When you get to the website, there are all these tabs at the top.

But no matter where you navigate on the site, in the upper right hand corner, there is a contact us button. When you click that button, a form pops up, you write a note. And if you'd like to join us live, just check the box. Mark will do everything else because he's the best. He's the man. And remember, both Mark and I are certified financial planners. So we're really like voyeurs. We love talking to you. We love hearing your stories, but we do have a credential. So it's not just out of the blue. We're not one of those people. We're the kind of people who actually studied for hard tests. And I can't believe how long it's been since I actually was in the business, but I was a long time ago.

Now I just talk about it.

So get in touch with us and we'll happily help you along your way.

Today, we are talking to Brian, who joins us from Washington State.

Hi, Brian.

How are you?

Hi, Dill.

I'm doing good.

Tell us what's happening, how we can help you out.

Well, I've been saving for retirement for a bunch of years, kind of got a slow start.

Didn't really start putting into retirement until my 40s.

And so my plan was always just to work until I was 67 and just put in as much as I could and figured whatever it is is what it's going to be. But my wife turned 65 this year. And so

Medicare, you know, Social Security. And now I'm thinking, I don't really want to work until I'm

67. You know, there's a lot of other things I'd rather really want to work until I'm 67.

There's a lot of other things I'd rather be doing.

And I like my job and everything.

But if I could retire next year when I turned 65, that would be awesome.
