Speaker 2: are going to be shut on so much crap that

18
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,360

Speaker 2: we got how we got so so lucky with the

29
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: BA fam and the BA listenership, but I know wise

30
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: because y'all have been rocking with us for years. I

31
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 2: know some of y'all have maybe just discovered the show,

32
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: but we have been around for almost a decade and

33
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: we have never lost sight of y'all and why we

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: are doing this show. And I think that feeling y'all

35
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,480

Speaker 2: send that love back to me is just incredible. So

38
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 2: thank you so much. Now we're heading into a Thanksgiving

39
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: week and I know you're going to be inundated with

40
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 2: promos for Cyber Monday and Black Friday and holiday sales

41
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: and all of that. But before you get that big

42
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: pile of marketing emails, I want to offer a really

43
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: cool opportunity to you. I've never done this before. I'm

44
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 2: a little nervous about it. I haven't even told my

45
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: business coach because she might be like, Mandy, what you doing?

46
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: Why are you making it so? Why are you doing that?

47
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 2: Why are you doing that? I'm doing it because I

48
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: want to. I'm doing it because I listen to y'all

49
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 2: and I see even from the survey, from y'all's comments

50
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: to the questions we get in our DMS, I see

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 2: that this has been a tough year, whether it's financially

52
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: or career wise. You may be feeling like your dollars

53
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 2: are not being stretched or not stretching as far as

54
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 2: they used to, That you're not getting the big raises

55
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: and promotions like we were seeing in twenty twenty one

56
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, that you're not feeling as confident getting

57
00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 2: yourself out there in the job market, or even if

58
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 2: you are in the job market, that recruiters are ghosting you,

59
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: that you're doing a lot of interviewing but you're not

60
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 2: getting any job offers. It's a tough season out there, right,

167
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 2: I'm looking up these questions, I do want to note

168
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: that Spotify, y'all have been leaving comments on Spotify. Why

169
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 2: don't no one tell me this? It's incredible? So you

170
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 2: know how we've been reading reviews from listeners on the air.

171
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: I'm going to start going into Spotify and reading our

172
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,880

213
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 2: I'm gonna read one more and then we'll get into questions.

214
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 2: This is from listener Taylor. Taylor responded to the episode

215
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 2: the Smartest Ways to invest in Your Future. She said,

216
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: I love the BAQA. I've been listening for the last

217
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 2: half of the year and learning a lot. I changed

218
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 2: jobs two years ago and I totally forgot about my

219
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 2: four one K. My current job does profit sharing. I

220
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 2: need to look into where that money went. Forever learning

221
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: from these amazing ladies. I love that. Taylor Honestly, some

222
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: of us we just need a reminder. You know, there's

223
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 2: so much going on throughout the day, so many other

224
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 2: important tasks you gotta do that sometimes that old dusty

225
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: retirement account or investment account or whatever, you just kind

226
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: of forget about it. So I'm so glad that this

227
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 2: show has been helping y'all. Spotify comments it's a thing.

228
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: And what I love about Spotify comments is that I

229
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 2: can actually see which episode you are responding to, whereas

230
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: on iTunes we can see the comments, but unless you

231
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 2: tell me which show it was, I don't exactly know

232
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 2: always which episode really resonated with y'all. So shout out

233
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 2: to Spotify. All right, now, let's get into this week's question.

234
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 2: This week's money question comes from igh listener Ta Coola.

235
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 2: Tacola says, Hello, ladies, I need some help getting started

236
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 2: with trading. I listened to your podcast regularly, especially when

237
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: you feature guests who trade in stocks. I guess I'm

238
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 2: a little hesitant and unsure of my and I would

239
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 2: love some of your personal advice on where to begin. Okay,

240
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 2: to Cola, you know, we got a really great response

241
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 2: because we did a replay a Haloback episode of an

242
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: interview that we did with Terry Egioma of Trade to

243
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: Travel or Trade and Travel. Terry is incredible. Go back

244
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 2: and find that episode. I think it was a Holiback

245
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: episode a few weeks ago, but you can find her everywhere.

246
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 2: Terry A. Geoma is an educator and she teaches. She

247
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 2: probably teaches tens of thousands of people how to trade

248
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 2: all the time. But the one thing that I thought

249
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 2: of when you asked about help getting started trading is

250
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 2: don't trade with real money in the beginning. So what

251
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: it's called is paper trading. And I have a paper

252
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: trading account through my trial Schwab investment account, and there

253
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: are other paper trading So the reason they call it

254
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 2: paper trading is because it's not real money. It's literally

255
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 2: like a playground for you to you can actively trade

256
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 2: and you feel like you're trading, and you get you

257
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: get used to the terminology. You can make mistakes without

258
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 2: actually risking real money. And I would say do that

259
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 2: for as long as it takes for you to feel comfortable.

260
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 2: I've actually been trying to do that for the past year,

261
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: and I kind of had these like spurts where I'm

262
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: doing it and not doing it, and I don't quite

263
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: feel ready to, you know, get to that tarry level

264
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 2: of investing, but why not try and while you're building

265
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 2: up your confidence, like use these tools as a way

266
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: to do it. So there are other paper trading platforms

267
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 2: on brokerages like wee Bowl that's we b u LLL

268
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 2: their Schwab, like I mentioned, Schwab actually acquired the Thinker

269
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 2: Swim platforms. So they acquired TDM ror Trade which founded

270
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 2: the Thinker Swim platform, which is like the OG of

271
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 2: paper trading. So if you're on Charles Schwab, that's the

272
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 2: Thinker Swim platform. Interactive Brokers has a paper trading offering.

273
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 2: E Trade of course has paper trading and this is

274
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 2: a new one that I haven't heard of or personally

275
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: you trade station new to me, maybe not new to y'all.

276
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 2: But those are five options if you want to get

277
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 2: into paper trading, and I think it's such a great opportunity.

278
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: Even if everything looks like Greek to you, I mean,

279
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 2: why do we hate on the Greeks whatever? Greek is

280
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: a beautiful language. Okay, if everything seems hard to understand

281
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 2: or it's a lot of jargon, at least you can

282
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 2: give yourself time. You can take your time, you can

283
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 2: google stuff, you can look up explainers and hey, like

284
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 2: ask me questions along the way. Maybe we can have

285
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: Terry come back on the show. But I love this

286
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: because it is a I mean, it's not even I

287
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 2: wouldn't even say low stakes. It's a zero stakes way

288
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 2: to start training yourself and how to trade and how

289
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 2: to make money literally appear from nowhere. It's magical. But yeah,

290
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 2: I am not again your investment advisor, and you got

291
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 2: to do what's best for you. But paper trading, I mean,

292
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: it's kind of a no brainer, right if it comes

293
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 2: to increasing your knowledge, getting yourself to practice, and getting

294
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 2: over that hump of like making it a little less scary,

295
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 2: just like actually getting in there and seeing how it

296
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 2: all works. Okay, Tacola, thank you for your question. I'm

297
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 2: going to be right back with question number two. Ba

00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 2: feel like I know you both so well and thank

309
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 2: you for all the work you both do to empower women.

310
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: I'm in my mid forties. I'm married and I have

311
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: a four year old. I live in New York City,

312
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: Husban and I have a yours, mine and hours financial setup.

313
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,199
Speaker 2: I recently came into some money which falls into the

314
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 2: mine category. It's around one hundred k. For now, I

315
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: have it parked in a CD till I decide what

316
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 2: to do with it. I have the following retirement accounts.

317
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 2: I have an IRA and I've maxed out my twenty

318
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 2: twenty four contribution. I have a work pension and a

319
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 2: four to seven B plan which I contribute towards. I

320
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 2: also have a high yield savings accounts with six months

321
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 2: worth of expenses. I have revolving credit card debt which

322
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 2: I pay off each month. Also, I have a mortgage.

323
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 2: I take care of my disabled father, so I'm wondering

324
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 2: if I should keep this extra hundred k in a

325
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 2: savings account for when he passes or as his health deteriorates.

326
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 2: I took a step down when I had my son

327
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,959
Speaker 2: and I wasn't earning as much for a few years.

328
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 2: During that time, I didn't contribute to retirement. So should

329
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 2: I invest the money into a brokerage account? If so,

330
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: how much we have a five to nine plan set

331
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 2: up for our son. Should I put some in there?

332
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 2: I have analysis paralysis right now, trying to decide what

333
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 2: to do. Please advice, I thank you and advance. Ginny, Okay, Ginny.

334
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 2: I love rich people problems. I love I got money problems.

335
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 2: This is a good problem to have, okay. And honestly,

336
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 2: parking it in a CD until you decide what to

337
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 2: do with it is so damn smart. And the reason

338
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: is that with the certificate a deposit account or a

339
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 2: CD account, which if you guys don't know what that is,

340
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 2: there you go. CDs tend to have much higher interest

341
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 2: rates than your typical high yield savings account even and

342
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 2: if you get a high interest rate on a CD,

343
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 2: that can be a great way to grow your funds.

344
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,360
Speaker 2: But you have the protection of FDIC insurance, which means

345
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 2: that your money is ain't going nowhere. Okay. Also with

346
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 2: the CD, the only caveat, well there's a couple, but

347
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: the biggest caveat is that you have to leave it there.

348
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 2: So leave it there for up to for the best rates.

349
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 2: The best rates on a CD are gonna often come

350
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 2: along with the longest the longest periods of time with

351
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 2: which you need to keep the money in that account.

352
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 2: So one year, two, three, four, five year CD, they're

353
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 2: going to increase in rate. But the caveat is that

354
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 2: you will have to pay penalties if you try to

355
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 2: withdraw it early. So I'm hoping that you have it

356
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 2: parked in like a I don't know, six month or

357
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 2: a one year CD, but sounds like a good plan

358
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: while you figure stuff out for sure. Okay, So I'm

359
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 2: in the put a chunk of that away category away

360
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 2: for now. You have your six months of expenses for

361
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 2: your family, but while you're taking care of your father,

362
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 2: I honestly think double that because the expense of taking

363
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 2: care of being a caregiver, which means I mean you

364
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 2: have two people to take care of a four year

365
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 2: old and you're ailing father and that is just a

366
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 2: lot of pressure. You may need to take time away

367
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 2: from work so that you don't end up getting super

368
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: burnt out and overwhelmed. You may want to use some

369
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 2: of that money to hire a home health aid or

370
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,439
Speaker 2: just to help cover your expenses so that you can

371
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: take a step back if you want to really take

372
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,679
Speaker 2: on a lot of the bulk of the caregiving duties

373
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 2: and responsibilities. So I could definitely see a world in

374
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 2: which you just take a part of that and budgeted

375
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 2: out for how many months of additional support you can

376
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 2: hire to help with your father or even childcare, you

377
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,439
Speaker 2: know which I want to or maybe both. Even so

378
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 2: you're revolving credit card debt, you say you pay it

379
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 2: off each month, so I'm assuming that means you pay

380
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 2: off in full each month. So it sounds like you

381
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 2: don't have like any high consumer debt that's gonna immediately

382
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,959
Speaker 2: require like a big chunk of that one hundred k.

383
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 2: You have a mortgage, I'm gonna I'm gonna guess that

384
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 2: it's at a relatively low interest rate, so we don't wanna.

385
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 2: I wouldn't recommend, And again I'm not your financial advisor

386
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 2: or your attorney or anything. Like that. But I typically

387
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 2: wouldn't recommend like putting that toward your mortgage, because there's other,

388
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 2: you know, better places that you can be putting that cash. Sometimes.

389
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: Let me see as far as your like brokerage account.

390
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,199
Speaker 2: Absolutely I would take a chunk of it and you

391
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 2: can you can break it up, you know. I would

392
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 2: prioritize it by what is the highest risk category for

393
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 2: your finance needs. It could be that your dad's going

394
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 2: to need around the clock care. It could be that

395
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 2: you're going to be taking a year off because you

396
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 2: need more time to do all this caregiving. It could

397
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 2: be that, you know, I know, you say that you're married.

398
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 2: I hope you're happily married, but it could be that

399
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 2: you anticipate having a separation and so you'll need to

400
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 2: have extra income to you know, last you through that time.

401
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be a Debbie down er. I'm

402
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 2: just being realistic as some like different scenarios of what

403
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 2: would come down the pike to make you want to

404
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 2: hold on to more cash now because you were not

405
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: able to contribute to your retirement fund for those three years,

406
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: catching up by parking like actually depositing a chunk of

407
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 2: that Hunter K, and to your you say that you've

408
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 2: maxed out your IRA, well, then open up a traditional

409
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 2: brokerage account. It can be a ROTH, but open up

410
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 2: a traditional like brokerage account and you could put half

411
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 2: of that hundred k. You can put the fifty k

412
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 2: into that. A good I OWE. A good strategy to

413
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 2: think about too, is like, as far as taxes are concerned,

414
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 2: where can you put that one hundred k that will

415
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 2: minimize your tax liability? So if you have an accountant, Jinny,

416
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: I would definitely say ask your accountant. This is I'm

417
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: answering your question. At the end of November, you still

418
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 2: got time, right this episode's coming out tomorrow, you still

419
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 2: have time to make some smart decisions about where to

420
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 2: put that money so that you don't end up having

421
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 2: as much tax liability. So that could be maxing out

422
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 2: your four one K, or you save a four to

423
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 2: seven what is it four or five seven B a

424
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 2: program that you have, so maxing that out, maxing out

425
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 2: your WROTH, I RAY, and then whatever else you have

426
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 2: you can max out if you have a HSA account,

427
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 2: if you have goodness, What are some other tax advantages

428
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 2: tax advantage accounts that I can think of right now.

429
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 2: Those are the big ones. Yeah, oh you're obviously you

430
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 2: mentioned your five two nine set up for your son,

431
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 2: So also making that contribution before the end of the year,

432
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 2: it could potentially reduce your income, your tax income for

433
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 2: the year. So I think it's a good opportunity for

434
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 2: you to talk one on one with your accountant or

435
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 2: an accountant, because sometimes I know that you've got these

436
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 2: varying priorities and all these different big important things that

437
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 2: you could be setting aside money for. But the beauty

438
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 2: of an accountant is that they can help you put

439
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 2: that money away so that you maximize the amount of

440
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: money that you end up with and minimize the amount

441
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,199
Speaker 2: of money that Uncle Sam takes because he will be

442
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 2: coming to get his share. That is the one thing

443
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 2: that he will always be want to do. Okay, So

444
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 2: that's really my advice. That's some ideas that I have,

445
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 2: But I think ultimately sitting down with the CPA who

446
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 2: can make the help you make the best choices to

447
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 2: limit your taxes is a really smart way to take this.

448
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 2: And I'll be surprised if you don't already have a CPA,

449
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 2: because I have never. I mean, I just love messages

450
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 2: like this especially when you listen to our show, because

451
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,439

452

00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,440

454
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,840

455
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 2: you'll be in amazing shape. Okay, thank you so much,
