Trump on Joe Kent: "I'm not a fan of the guy ... His wife was killed. He remarried fairly quickly."












Private schools are the most expensive placebo in America. Nowhere else will you pay $250k+ for something that has so little impact on school achievement. My latest on why private school isn't worth the cost: ofdollarsanddata.com/why-private-sc…


Should you pay off your mortgage early or invest instead? A couple recently faced this exact dilemma. They had $180k in cash and a $175k mortgage at 3.1%. Spouse #1: “Let’s just pay it off. I hate debt. I want the house free and clear.” Spouse #2: “No way. Why use cash to eliminate a 3% loan when we could invest it at 7% or more based on historical returns?” Both had valid points. Her math said invest it. His stress levels said pay it off. So they compromised... paid off half, invested half — improving cash flow and keeping their long-term plan on track. This decision isn’t purely financial. It’s emotional, behavioral, and personal. And that’s why this debate will never end. Have you run your numbers on this scenario?
