Optimizing Cash Flow for College and Retirement
With a combined income of $450,000, the Johnsons felt overwhelmed by their debt obligations, including a mortgage, car loans, and mounting credit card balances. Their existing debts were spread across various high-interest accounts, hindering their ability to aggressively save for their children's college education and their own retirement. They needed a clear path toward simplifying their finances and reducing interest expenses.
Using Golden Door Asset's Blended Rate Calculator, we analyzed the Johnsons' debt portfolio and identified opportunities for consolidation and refinancing. By strategically consolidating their high-interest debts into a new loan at a lower blended rate, we projected savings of over $37,000 in interest payments over the loan term. This freed up cash flow allowing them to increase their monthly contributions to both their 529 plans and retirement accounts.
The Blended Rate Calculator accurately computed the weighted average interest rate of their consolidated debt. We then compared this rate to available refinance and personal loan options to identify the most advantageous strategy.
