GRFTFS: Mortgage is Paid Off! Now What?
Manage episode 495381427 series 3033836
"We’re 61 and 62 and just paid off our mortgage. Should we keep aggressively saving or start shifting toward preserving what we’ve already built?" We're answering YOUR questions on this week's Get Ready For The Future Show!
I’ve got $500,000 in a 401(k), but I’m burned out and considering a career break. I’m 53 — can I step away for a while without wrecking my future? I’ve saved $600,000 and I’m 59, but I still have $25,000 in credit card debt. Should I use savings to wipe it out or keep plugging away with payments? We’re 66 and retiring next year. Do we need to keep emergency savings in retirement, or will our investment accounts cover any surprises?
And if you've got a question you want answered on the show, call or text 501.381.5228! Or email your question to [email protected]!
