Refinancing = Saving Money

June 11th, 2020 at 08:49 pm

By refinancing my house, my mortgage rate will drop close to 4 percentage points, I will save close to $500 a month by refinancing.
Today I locked my rate in

Now that I’ve gotten rid of that credit card, I’d like to build up my emergency savings account, especially since I have no clue what is going on with this virus.

With the savings from the mortgage and the side hustle I should be able to sock away about $1200 a month, two months would put me back at the amount I had saved prior to paying off the credit card. Once I’m back at that amount, I can aggressively tackle the student loans.

Honestly, I have no idea what God’s plan is, however, I’m truly thankful for him sharing with me financial literacy. I don’t know a quarter of what you all know, but what I’ve learned so far has really taught me a lot, and I’m thankful. Knowledge is key and I look forward to this continued financial growth.

    Well, that's a tidy little amount of money to free up. That'll make life easier. What did your new interest rate end up being?
