EXCELLENT video. Everything well explained with no jargon or hype. Just the facts presented in a clear, thorough and understandable manner. THANK YOU x 100 from someone on the brink of retirement who is muddling through the nuances of how all this stuff works!

This is fantastic. I've been trying to gameplan the optimal structures and balances I would want in my accounts to support an early mid 50s retirement. These types of videos are very helpful to wrap my heads around the mechanics of the tax side and try to marry the tax concepts with learning about ACA subsidies and ranges I might prefer to be in. I always appreciate how you go deeper than surface level to try and give people the best thoughts on planning. I voraciously consume finance youtube content and your up there with some of the top folks in the space and the effort is appreciated!

Yet another excellent breakdown video Zacc!

I like your videos. I appreciate you taking the time to explain everything clearly before running all the numbers. <br><br>I never like assumptions because anyone can make any scenario true by selective assumptions. However, at least you acknowledge that Roth, SS, traditional IRA and brokerage must exist to provide for the flexibility.<br><br>This video is really good for everyone planning to retire in 5 years or longer to have savings in all the buckets.

I really appreciate all of this great information, Zacc. Confirms a number of things I have been thinking about but also leads to a lot of follow-up questions. Hopefully at the end of this Guided Path you'll do an AMA session!!
