Excellent advice! I second the recommendation for any man who wants to study the "deep ancestry" of his unbroken male-to-male line, or for any woman who wants to study the deep ancestry of her unbroken female-to-female line.

And after you receive your NGS results, be sure to transfer them (free of charge) to FTDNA (Family Tree DNA), which will allow you to use the same DNA information for genealogical applications -- in addition to your "deep ancestral" research.

(The NGS study is designed to tell something about where your ancestors lived thousands of years ago. On the other hand, the genealogical application of the same data via FTDNA will help you find families to whom you're related within the last few hundred years.)
