So I’m going to<br> go ahead and read the first question. Andrew, would you like to say hello?<br> <br> <br> <br> Andrew:                              <a href="https://www.temi.com/editor/t/y616TzTFS2k5FBBbON9u_IiHFIAQIGt9MkglY63a2QJdt-Gd1hD7-YWYgxINXpdYXPXMKWQ5zXdIhYjlOhAMSyIqD1o?loadFrom=DocumentDeeplink&amp;ts=58.41">00:58</a>                     Hello.<br> <br> <br> <br> Dave:                                    <a href="https://www.temi.com/editor/t/y616TzTFS2k5FBBbON9u_IiHFIAQIGt9MkglY63a2QJdt-Gd1hD7-YWYgxINXpdYXPXMKWQ5zXdIhYjlOhAMSyIqD1o?loadFrom=DocumentDeeplink&amp;ts=60.15">01:00</a>                     Excellent.<br> Good job. All right, moving on. Hello. I have been following your podcast for<br> months and just recently signed up for your service. I noticed you’re using<br> your Roth IRA for your stock recommendations and tracking your 40 year<br> portfolio. I understand the benefits of using a Roth to avoid taxes but is<br> absolutely unnecessary for the goal of your slash our investing. My Roth is<br> being utilized with an advisor service from vanguard. So it was not available<br> for individual stocks. I’m using a separate, separate taxable brokerage account<br> for my stock picking. Would this still be beneficial in the long run with<br> having to pay taxes yearly on dividends and capital gains are selling if in a<br> taxable brokerage? Thank you Jared. Andrew, what are your thoughts on this?<br> <br> <br> <br> Andrew:                              <a href="https://www.temi.com/editor/t/y616TzTFS2k5FBBbON9u_IiHFIAQIGt9MkglY63a2QJdt-Gd1hD7-YWYgxINXpd..."></a>
