Summary
The age-old question of whether it makes sense to pay off your mortgage...it never goes away. I understand that you want to be debt free, but keep in mind that there is such a thing as good debt. That's what I explained to Joe from Chicago on the latest BONUS call. Have a finance question? We want to hear from you! Email us at askjill@betteroffpodcast.com and we'll arrange to get you on. Don't forget, a brand new episode of the Better Off podcast comes out Thursday so stay tuned for more listener questions plus an informative interview. Better Off is sponsored by Betterment.

| 0:20.7 | And one of the questions that I got |
| 0:22.3 | from an audience member was, you know, how do you stay on top of all this stuff when you're |
