Welcome to the Jill on Money Show.

It's Thursday, September 1st, and we continue, even during our vacation, even as we go into

a long weekend, and these weekends get longer and longer as people are working remotely.

Even with that, we want to help you out.

If you've got a financial question, just go to JillOnMoney.com, click the contact us button,

and you can always check that box to say you want to come on the air with us.

That's what Michelle did.

My dilemma is this.

My husband and I are going to retire in a few years.

We're thinking around four years from now, and we have been thinking maybe we need some help trying to figure out

exactly how to manage our money and what's the best way of getting money out of certain accounts

and the tax situation around what we use when, and so we've been interviewing some financial advisors

or they've approached us, some of them, and I like to do things myself.

A lot of times I really like investments, like researching and knowing more about it.

That's why I listen to your podcast.

All these investors want to charge us a course because we're using their services.

They're going to charge us a fee, which is fine.

However, it's going to be at least $10,000, you're probably more.

Hold on, let me just go back up for one second.

Your four years from retirement, tell me how much money have you saved in retirement assets approximately?

In 401K, we have about two and a half million.

Okay, great.
