Welcome to the Jill on Money podcast. It is Wednesday, April 14th, and we are here to help you answer the unanswerable.

Pretty much everything's answerable in the financial world. We are here to help you figure out where you need to go next in your financial journey. How about that? That's a more

open way of putting it. We do this by having you send us an email question, ask jill at jillonmoney.com,

or if you're on our website, if you're on the jillonmoney.com website, click on the contact button.

It's very easy. And don't forget to tell us if you would like to join us on the air.

Because as we learned yesterday, when you come on the air, you might get a different kind of a response because I ask a lot of follow-up questions.

It's a richer experience.

It really is.

So if you're nervous, just change your name, change some of the details, like where you're

from.

One person, we won't say who, used a faux accent, which may be one of our favorite things

we've heard so far this year.

Is that right, Mark, wouldn't you say?

That was the best.

Yeah.

It was amazing.

Okay. So, without further ado,

let us bring James on the program with us. James is from the Bay Area in California. And we just

wanted to make sure that James had plenty of time, relax. He asked very good questions before we got on the air.

He was, should I take notes? Now, don't take notes. Just talk to me. So James, what can we do for you?

Thanks, Jill, for taking my call. This is a fantastic experience. I really appreciate it.

I've got a bunch of questions that have to do with, of course, retirement. I'm in the process of turning a corner, so I thought I would check in with you.
