| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Jill on Money show. It's Tuesday, April 21st, and we are here trying to answer your financial questions. If you've got one, all you need to do is go to our website, jillonmoney.com. |
| 0:17.0 | Jillonmoney.com. And in the upper right hand corner, there is a contact us button. When you click |
| 0:23.5 | that button, a magic form appears. That's the email we receive. And if you would like to send us |
| 0:29.5 | an email, give us plenty of details. Specifically, we always ask like the major question that people |
| 0:35.1 | seem to leave off is how much money you spend on a monthly |
| 0:38.1 | basis. That's important because it's usually the piece of information we need to help you with |
| 0:43.2 | whatever question is on your mind. So don't forget that. If, however, you would just be pleasant |
| 0:48.8 | enough to check that little box at the end, Mark will actually arrange to get you on the air live with us, which is so |

| 1:24.3 | So maybe I should just say good morning, Frederick. |
| 1:26.4 | Welcome to the Jill on Money Show. |
| 1:28.3 | Mark, when does it drop? |
| 1:30.3 | What is, when is it? |
| 1:30.7 | 3 a.m. |
| 1:31.2 | 3. up with Frederick. So maybe I should just say, good morning, Frederick. Welcome to the Jill on Money Show. Mark, when does it drop? What is, when is... 3 a.m. is the drop time? |
| 1:32.9 | Yeah. That's amazing. Okay, Frederick, so you got an early morning. That's even earlier than I wake up. |
| 1:39.0 | So what's going on? What can we do? So, me and my wife have a non-traditional retirement. |
| 1:44.6 | My wife is active duty military and we'll be retiring in five years from now. |
