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. Should I pay my statement balance or my current balance, and what’s the difference?
2. What happens to money that is in unused 529 plan?
3. Am I being Frugal or Cheap by hacking the meal kit delivery service promotions?
4. Does it make sense to wipe out my student loans if it means it’s going to wipe out my savings?
5. I’ve inherited a house- should I rent it as an investment property or just go ahead and sell it?
