We’re kicking off the week by answering your listener questions!

Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!

1 - Torn: We’re behind when it comes to investing but it seems silly when we don’t have enough liquid savings… what do we do?!

2 - Pension: How aggressively should I invest my Roth IRA dollars when I have a safe pension to fall back on?

3 - Mortgage recast: What’s a good rule of thumb when I’m considering recasting my mortgage to shrink my monthly payment?

4 - Social Security: Why do y’all always say to delay and wait to draw on Social Security?

5 - Work-provided insurance: Should I pay extra for accidental death and dismemberment insurance or stick with the free option?
