Welcome to the Jill on Money Coronavirus Market Update. We are recording this on

Sunday afternoon for 39 p.m. Eastern time. It will drop in your feed on Monday morning. This is the

program that is holding your hand, helping lift you up, and hopefully not bring

you down too much unless you act like a knucklehead and then we're going to bring you down.

We want to help take the mystery out of this crazy period of time, focusing on your money during the pandemic and trying to get you set up for the week ahead,

I don't know what's going to come.

Nobody knows what's going to come.

But if you've got a problem and maybe it's keeping you up at night or maybe it's easier for you to focus on your money

rather than all the other fears in your life why'd you give us a holler? Ask Jill at
