Pausing our retirement in order to pay off our house in about three years.

What's your household income?

We make about $120,000.

About 75.

Okay.

So I know, Dave, you would say we could pause other things and keep the retirement and keep it going, but we have been through the gazelle phase.

Sorry, I'm not sure I'm following what you're saying.

just to chunk a little bit of extra money in there.

A little bit, yes.

Thereabout, yes.

Well, it's a true honor to be on the phone with you.

And I also want to note, John, you are a great value add to the program.

Love listening to you.

Thank you so much.

How can we help?

So my question is, how do you deal with the emotion of your asset values and the crazy fluctuations we're seeing in the stock market these days?

You know, I'm an everyday millionaire.

It took me probably 20 years of hard work to build up a million dollars in a nest egg.

And I've well surpassed that now.

But now you watch over the course of four months and you can see a million dollars eradicate out of your investment balance almost seemingly overnight.
