New content here, guys. 

Every Sunday night, a group of 7 of us financial educators are hopping onto Twitter Spaces, which is a new Twitter feature that allows audio chatrooms. 

Each week, we’re tackling a different topic, drawing on our various experiences on knowledge sets. We’re calling this show - Up and to the Right. The direction of growth, be it personal or financial. We’re recording these sessions and I’ll be posting them here. 

The topic for this first week - if you have a mortgage, should you try to pay it down early? Or should you take those extra funds and invest them? 

Thanks for listening, come check us out next Sunday night on Twitter. And as always, an investment in knowledge pays the Best Interest.

In Episode 17, we talk all things inflation. 

- What is it?

- How does it happen?

- Should you be worried?

- And what you can do to fight it?

 

Here's the original article from The Best Interest:
