We’re kicking off the week by answering your 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 - How much cash should I keep liquid as I’m looking to renovate my home and pay off student loans?

2 - Are medical expenses incurred by my family members reimbursable via my health savings account, decades into the future?

3 - As a recent divorcee, should I use my emergency fund or a maturing CD to eliminate my credit card debt?

4 - Should I be concerned that my bank received a “negative outlook” by Moody’s?

5 - I’m getting my MBA and am wondering if I should save up those tuition dollars in a 529 account or my high yield savings?
