About this episode
Welcome to Episode 164 of The Numbers Game. Today we tackle whether aggressively paying down your mortgage is a better financial strategy than putting those extra dollars into an index fund. We unpack the factors of compound interest in investments, the benefits of diversification, tax considerations, and the psychological comfort of being debt-free.
On this episode, we discuss:
- Million Dollar Investing Mistake
- Benefits of Index Funds Over Paying Off Your Mortgage
- The Role of Superannuation in Your Investment Strategy
- Debunking Common Investment Misconceptions
- The Importance of Financial Planning
