Welcome to the Jill on Money Show.

It's Thursday, September 18th, and we are here trying to talk you through whatever is going on in your life that impacts your financial life.

Now, please note that I start with your real life, not with your money.

This is a very important concept to me.

We are not in the business of trying to help you accumulate as much as you possibly can

And that way you can come back anytime. But at the very least, you should sign it for our free weekly newsletter comes out on Fridays. And by doing this, you'll also be getting blog posts that I put up there. And you can just stay in touch with us. Okay, so that's kind of a fun thing to do. Today, we are chatting with Bob, who joins us from Boston. Hello, Bob. How are you? Hello, Jill and Mark.

Great to talk with you.

What's going on?

How can we help you out?

I am approaching 65.

I'll turn on 65 next May.
