Disappointed

After prompting a recent podcast of Jill’s it was proceeded by an advertisement by a Planned Parenthood hood spot or as I prefer to more accurately name them “legal infanticide” I CANNOT AND NEVER EVER follow or listen to one more podcast from Jill! Instant unfollow!

I love Jill’s great no bull money advice.

Wish i had paid attention 20 years ago instead of a year before retirement. Her advice is clear and sage like. She speaks from such a generous place I think anyone could benefit from this podcast

1/18 episode

The buzzing noise throughout took away from the episode tremendously. Love listening to the show in the morning but this sound was like a morning alarm making it stressful.

Financial Staple - Daily Dose of Great Advice

Very unique in the financial podcast realm; you get new callers daily with their life and questions, everyday voices bringing all the financial terms and strategies to life. Easily the best go-to for new and seasoned investors alike
Kevin Bitter

Not Very Relatable

I’ve listened for about two months and every caller seems to be a person who makes 4x the national median income, a half million in savings, another half million in investment/retirement, with a least one property that’s nearly paid off or multiple properties they rent out. Not once have I heard a call from someone even semi struggling to get their finances in order or wondering if they’ll be able to retire at any point in life. It gets sort of old hearing the same stories of people with millions in cash and assets, and a waiting pension, asking if they can retire a few years early.

New podcast name

It doesn’t matter what they call the show, it’s Jill’s knowledge that makes it great.

Politics and money

Generally good financial advice but sketchy social views makes one wonder if money views are sound

Great show!

Love the consistent message. Practical approach to finances and of course Jill’s follow up for everyone with insurance and wills!

30 year mortgages and working forever are celebrated!

BE FOREWARNED: Jill & Mark look askance at: 1)Those who have paid off mortgages and 2)Those who retire before they are 70. However, if your plan is to work indefinitely and carry a 30 year mortgage when you eventually retire, you'll find the show right up your alley.

Love hearing mark!

Update 2022: after a year I still think this show is a must listen. I live how Mark and Jill bounce ideas off each other. 2021: Mark is awesome and now we have proof he is real!

Great

Great Show! Covers lots of financial topics.

Mostly Love

Love Jill and Mark’s questions and answers. The downside is most every caller beginning every reply with the word “so”.
CubanCollins

Such a gem of a financial podcast

It’s so comforting to listen to Jill and Mark talk about finances. They always have a plan that people can easily implement and they never make anyone feel bad for life choices. I love that they work with wherever people are and help them come up with a plan that works for their circumstances. I have learned so much from this show and Jill on Money and recommend them to everyone I know. There’s always something. New to learn !
Been there and not going back!

Awesome Podcast

Look forward to this EVERY DAY! Thanks Jill and Mark

Great podcast on financial good sense

I enjoy listening to this podcast while doing chores around the house. I like hearing the financial stories of various individuals and how Jill and Mark would advise them on investment decisions and paying down debt. I increase my financial know-how while getting the chores done! Thank you Jill and Mark, you make finances fun!!
Martina Randall

New favorite money podcast

Jill is my favorite money nerd, and hearing Mark on this podcast is a huge plus. Episodes are the perfect length and love hearing more calls.

Eye On Money is Awesome Resource

Valuable advice on real-life money dilemmas. best part: Mark is a regular on this show.
elgodsey

Thank you Jill and Mark!

I recently wrote to Jill and she invited me onto the show. Her straight forward, no nonsense advice was exactly what I needed. SheWas able to review my numbers with me and assure me that I’m doing fine. She encouraged me to remember to live a little, and as a result my teenage daughter and I are taking a trip over Thanksgiving break, and we have many more travel plans as a family in the future. Jill can help you stay on track but also give you perspective around balancing money and living your life.

Great Show

Jill is very knowledgeable. What I love about her is her way of making things light and enjoyable. She is very practical in her advice and doesn't make a living making things more complicated like many others in the industry.

Another Jill.. Can Life Get Any Better?

Another Jill…YAYYYY!!! I follow her on the “Jill On Money” podcast, watch her business segments on CBS, listen to her on the radio, and I read her latest book The Dumb Things Smart People Do with Their Money. In fact, I have a signed copy from a book talk in Hastings, NY. Am I Jill-obsessed? Duh. But that’s because she is so helpful when it comes to helping us understand how to better manage money and she delivers her advice with humor, charm and sometimes a friendly smack on the back of the head. Jill makes it all easy to understand even when she takes a deep dive on a topic. Jill’s the best..keep on rockin it!
Collecting Zeros

Love it - only two episodes in.

So excited for an additional chance to take in Jill’s no-nonsense advice (with her touch of grace). Two podcasts takes care of my commute…each way! Keep up the great content.

Jill (and Mark!) knock it out of the park, again!

Jill adds yet another phenomenal podcast to her repertoire. This podcast differs slightly from Jill on Money as she tackles ANY money question, not just those related to investing or retirement. Whether your a newbie, hobbyist or well-versed in all things finances, this is the podcast for you. The podcast is equals parts entertaining and educational and I highly recommend. Added bonus, we finally get to hear Mark!
