All right. Okay, so we're working with six years to retire, and you have zero? George is going to walk you through this, but just a couple quick questions. You have zero, or you have very little? What's the real, real here?

84.834 - 108.86 Amy

I have no retirement fund, but I do have... Cash, and I have no real debt. The only debt I have is about $9,000 that I took out a 0% interest loan and did some updates on my house. Okay. Sure sounds like real debt to me. Well, yeah, but other than that, I have no debt.

108.961 - 114.525 Ken Coleman

What kind of cash do you have? About $200,000. And what's that sitting in?

116.184 - 118.526 Amy

A couple bank accounts.

119.366 - 122.608 George Kamel

Just in checking accounts? Or normal savings accounts?
