Hey, thank you so much for having me. I appreciate it. Absolutely. How can we help? Well, I got started with you guys late. I am debt free now with the exception of my mortgage. Oh, great. But I didn't start investing until about age 55. I'm 58 and a half now. I fully maxed out my Roth as much as I can. I have another mutual fund investment that I put my 15% in every month.
