Write in! Jill and Mark give very reasonable and personalized advice. They are not trying to sell you on a specific lifestyle of money management, they try to meet everyone where they are at!

Another doom and gloom leftist

Jill and Mark are a great team. While each conversation or email addresses very unique concerns, I am still able to learn and apply a lot to my own personal financial situation. They are very calming and unbiased and are respectful of every caller. I listen to both your 7 day a week (agree, you guys deserve a break to dial down to five days, but I will miss you on the weekends) and CBS podcasts. I signed up over a year ago (thanks for keeping things affordable at $35) and listen after the webinars go live. You’re good people. Thanks for all you do in a caring and such a knowledgeable way. Peace.

My wife and I are in our 70’s and have listened to Mark and Jill for years. I appreciate their candor, their experience, and their humor! Their callers and interviews don’t always relate to where my wife and I are in life but I rarely listen without learning, or being reminded of something that is important. I don’t always agree but I do always respect their thoughts. They are truly interested in each listener’s unique situation and wellbeing. And I do enjoy the way they share their personal stories sprinkled with pets, hobbies, travel, and tria. Keep up the good work!

I listened to Jill faithfully since before the pandemic and loved her straightforward approach and sound advice. It was great when she and Mark started doing daily shows during COVID. HOWEVER, the show has evolved to mostly feature callers with some combination of “I have $X million in retirement, 4 rental properties, and a pension… will I be okay?” Of course you will. Most people who listen to personal finance shows are doing so because they don’t have a multi-million dollar net worth. At a certain point, I just couldn’t handle yet another braggart seeking reassurance about their pile of money. You’re good, bro. It’s us non-zillionaires who need the advice. After years of daily listening, I’m out.

Gave it a listen as she’s mildly interesting on TCAF. Conclusion — she was born into wealth — and has spent her career advising rich people how to get richer. She knows nothing else. Wouldn’t last 2 weeks getting eaten alive like the rest of us.

I heard you mention kids and money on today’s episode… Please please please!? I’ve been trying to find some sort of workbook activity for my 12-year-old this summer and I’m coming up empty. Thanks for all your help- Lynn from the Midwest.

Long time listener but I am having a hard time listening to all the repetitive ads that seem to drone on and on. Please consider making some adjustments. Thank you.

Love Jill’s advice, but there are too many long commercials especially since the episodes are so short.

I love learning from experts, and the themes are great/relevant. However… The latest episode was a person pretending to be concerned with their early/young retirements. 200k+ in annual pensions. Social security. IRAs. TSPs. Savings. Multiple rental properties in addition to their primary residence. LOL. Something needs to change. Given this isn’t new feedback, I’m doubtful. They couldn’t make this less relatable.
