[quote=Anonymous]So what do you do with the remaining almost $6K? I make savings a specific part of my budget to ensure that they get prioritized. (We have wiggle room and move the extra to savings periodically, but I still have line items for 529s and other general savings) I think it's weird that someone at your income level would need to have a car payment (particularly one that large--is that 2 cars or one?) and household furnishing payments. I would just buy them outright. If they are holdovers from earlier days, I don't understand why you don't just pay them off. You have an extra $5000 a month, why hold on to loans and pay interest on them? Even without taking anything out of savings, you could pay them off in 4 months and have that extra $2k a month now instead of a year from now. [/quote]
