  • Townstone Financial Show 11.27.19 Don't cut the Turkey without me OR WE Leaving!
    Millions of Americans will fight their Turkey hangovers this Friday to wait in line for a chance at a discounted TV or other consumer product. Isn't getting a great deal on Black Friday what the American Dream is all about?
    Joking aside, while it IS nice to get a discount on anything you're buying this season, please don't miss the forest for the trees.
    A mortgage refinance could save you hundreds monthly and tens of thousands over the life of the loan. While everyone else is busy elbowing each other for position in line, you can sit comfortably at home knowing you've saved more on your mortgage than you ever will on holiday purchases.
    Speaking of holiday shopping, a recent survey shows that nearly 3 in 5 (59%) holiday shoppers incurred some credit card debt during the 2018 holiday season, and 35% of those who did say they’re still working to get it paid off. If you haven't looked at a debt-consolidation mortgage yet, do yourself a favor and fill out a free consultation at Townstone.com because credit card debt can be a financial pit that's nearly impossible to pull yourself out of.
    To our listeners, customers, family, and friends: wishing you all a Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving.
