No, run away from NWM. You saw a salesman.

If you are the average american couple, nothing big like a disabled dependent or anything like that - go to Fidelity, Vanguard, or Schwab and open a Roth IRA. Put up to 6500 in it a year and invest it in a target date fund (or something that tracks the S&P 500).

For your 401(k)s, put it in a target date fund.

Now you're ready to retire. Just make sure the money is invested - check every once in a while. Every month if that is how often you put money in the Roth IRA.

I hope a lot has changed since 2020, since it sounded a lot like "male spy will be weak, woman spy will be strong independent woman" - not that that is bad, but it was written badly.

One of the side characters was listed as "a stanley tucci type"

but he sounded like he was going to stay a side character, but who knows

btw, if you want to get the chance to watch pilots and read plot outlines, I get around ~6 a year on a survey site I am on. I have a referral link to it if you want to join it - I get around $5-$15 when I do a TV show survey.

Okay, so i'm not gonna type out a summary of the survey - but based on what I read + what it was asking me, it sounded a lot like it was going to be Male Spy is fish out of water and Female Spy does spy stuff.

So with the US version, six categories are presented at the start of a round - each category has five questions. In the first round, the clues are worth 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1000. The higher the $ amount, the more difficult the clue.

Someone might say "Annual Events for $400"

They'll be read "The largest U.S. independent film festival, it showcases new talents & movies each January in Utah"

Anyone can buzz in. Whoever buzzes in first can answer.

This happens until time runs out or the board is finished.

One of the clues on the board is a daily double - they can bet any amount they want on this question. They are the only person who can answer the clue - no need to buzz in.

After the Jeopardy round finishes, they go to the Double Jeopardy round - same deal, except the dollar amounts are doubled and there are two daily doubles.

After that finishes, everyone who has a positive amount of money gets to go to the Final Jeopardy round. These questions tend to be harder than any of the others in the game. They are shown a category, such as "Historic Names" and then they must write down bets (I think when filming, they get something like 5 minutes to do the math and figure out how much they should bet). After that, they are read a clue (such as "DNA from 2 living descendants of Anne of York was used to identify the remains of this man") - after 30 seconds have passed, their electronic pads disable and they cannot write anything else. The host starts with whoever entered with the lowest and reads their response. If they answered incorrectly, the hose says they are wrong, followed by how much they lost. If they answered correctly ("Who is Richard III") - the host states that they are correct, how much they bet, and what their final score is. Whoever has the most is the champion of the day and goes onto the next day. The contestant with the second most gets $2000, and the third place gets $1000.

If they die, they go to a tiebreaker round - a category is shown and then a clue is read. Whoever buzzes in first and answers it correctly goes to the next show.
