All right. The question is, when investing for retirement, how do the retirement index

0:12.8

plans, such as the 2060 retirement, typically work? I think that they're referring to target

0:19.2

date index funds. So could you kind of give a baseline of how those work for someone

0:23.8

who's new to that?

0:24.8

Yeah, that's a great question because a lot of people, I know I get frustrated when I watch

0:28.6

a lot of the content out there, whether it's YouTube, TikTok, and people are like, just

start investing. You're like, well, how? What do I want to do? I don't want to because
