We’re kicking off the week by answering your questions! And if you have a question for us, we’d love for you to submit your own via HowToMoney.com/ask/ , send us your voice memo!
- Is it better to buy a new construction or a fixer upper, as an investment property?
- What’s the best credit card to replace possessions after an apartment fire?
- Should I continue to take advantage of a mortgage deferment even though we could make the payment?
- How should I go about dollar cost averaging when my income is seasonal?
- What is ‘coast FIRE’ and do y’all recommend it?
Links from this episode:
- Since this was episode 250, we both shared an episode that stood out as one of our favorites- mine was our interview with Curt Steinhorst on Staying Focused in an Age of Distraction, and Joel’s was Money, Your Brain, and Buying Happiness.
- We mentioned a couple credit card articles during this episode. One on if you’re looking to maximize your rewards based on how you spend and another on using 0% balance transfer cards to help pay off debt.
- And our last question was a followup from a recent episode on the pros and cons of the FIRE movement.

During this episode we both enjoyed a Red Wine Foederbier Southern Brewing Company!
