151. Should I invest or Pay Down Mortgage
Manage episode 436517934 series 3559707
Welcome back to another episode of the 360 Money Matters Podcast!
In this episode, we discussed the dilemma of whether to pay down a mortgage or invest, especially in a high-interest rate environment. We emphasize that there is no one-size-fits-all answer and that the decision should be based on individual circumstances, financial goals, and risk tolerance. People should consider their long-term financial strategy, including their retirement goals, and factor in the potential impact of inflation and tax implications. While paying down a mortgage offers a guaranteed return, we suggest that starting an investment journey early can be beneficial with the power of compounding.
