I owe 37k on a home equity line of credit, and another 22k on a car loan. The interest rates on those loans arent that bad (7% and 8%) but I am paying a lot in interest every month. I have been putting the max (15%) of my paycheck into 401k. Does it make sense to reduce my 401k contribution to 1% (so I get the company match) so I can pay off loans faster?
Im 22 and just started my first “real job” right out of college. About to finish paying off my student loan and was looking at also investing in mutual funds and a Roth IRA. What all is involved with a Roth IRA? Does it have its on interest rate or whats the deal?
So, if I intend to leave my current company in a year & move my 401K into another 401K or IRA option, does it make sense to just keep everything in a money market fund? Would I have to stay with the same funds for 5 or more years to reap any benefits from the stock market? Thanks.
