What should you do when extra money, competing priorities, or a major life transition creates a financial decision you werenโ€™t expecting? In this mailbag episode, Lee answers listener questions covering several common situations that can affect families before and during retirement. The right answer often depends on much more than a single account or financial rule. Looking at each decision within the context of the bigger plan can help prevent an easy choice today from becoming a regret later.

Hereโ€™s what we discuss in todayโ€™s show:
