We’re kicking off the week by answering your 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 - Debt-fueled lifestyle inflation: Should I sell a rental property to pay off my 401k loan used to install a pool?

2 - Car financing: Does it make more sense to pay for a new/used car in cash or make payments and invest the difference?

3 - Military service/VA loans: What are the pros and cons of going with a VA loan for a new home we’d like to purchase?

4 - 403b: Leave it, transfer it, roll it, or convert it? (or maybe even BOP it?!... Capitalize could be a part of the solution)

5 - 529 plans: How should I sort through all the options available?! (Virginia's direct-sold site is Invest529.com)
