Summary
We’re kicking off the week by answering listener questions! And if you have a question that you’d like for us to answer on the show, we’d love for you to submit your own via HowToMoney.com/ask , send us your voice memo. Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!
1 - What should be my top financial priority when I know my job is only guaranteed for a year?
2 - Should I make a larger down payment in order to keep my mortgage below 25% of my monthly budgeted expenses?
3 - Am I being frugal or cheap if I’m willing to skip my friend’s bachelorette party?
4 - I’m thinking about converting my primary residence into my first rental property to rent to a friend- what should I keep in mind?
5 - How do I get my HOA to start investing the building’s reserve funds?
