So I'm heading in the direction of my retirement from my primary career, probably in the next as early as three years, but could push that out a little bit. So I'm looking at the sunset of my retirement.

uh, my main career and what I'm looking to, you know, I'm doing it as a second career. And then also, you know, building some wealth in that I've already paid off. I'm, I kind of flip flop baby five and six, uh, paid off the house. So now I'm bolstering the college account for the kids and then trying to build some wealth tools. Um, and I'm, I'm playing it really conservative.

We've got some money in high yield. Um, I'm just looking for a little direction in a couple of those areas as my sunset of my career kind of approaches.

Yeah. Okay. Yeah, and I've been in public service as an emergency responder for, And just that, you know, the length of that career is wearing and tearing on the body a little bit. All right, let's just dive in there.

It probably has something to do with teaching similar to the field. So basically shifting my knowledge and experience into some kind of teaching environment for to the new up-and-comings, whether it's through my teaching LLC or at a local community college, certainly an option.

And I've put quite a bit of money away to pay for my stepson's college. And my goal is to have that a hundred percent by the time I retire. Okay. And, but then I have some, some extra in there that, you know, I know that I can do better with that outside of a high yield. How much extra? And it just, I would say in the hundred-ish range, I'd be maybe comfortable with freeing up out of there.

And I just want to be... I kind of treat that as it's not really, yes, I received it in inheritance, but it's not really my money. No, it's yours. It is, but yeah, I just... Can you imagine if I gave Jay a gift and then took it back the next day?
