START HERE: Should I use my dividends to pay off DEBT or REINVEST for FINANCIAL FREEDOM?
Description
In this Start Here episode, I tackle a thoughtful and highly relevant question:
“Should I reinvest my dividends OR use them to pay down my mortgage?”
As a Financial Planner and dividend-focused investor, I help unpack this decision from both a practical and mindset perspective. Explaining how each option can serve different goals and life stages, and how to think clearly about risk, return, and long-term financial freedom.
🔍 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- What dividends are and why they’re powerful
- The benefits of reinvesting dividends for compound growth
- When it might make sense to direct dividends to pay down debt
- How to weigh interest saved vs income earned
- Why there’s no "one-size-fits-all" approach
- How to stay focused on your goals and timeline
- The importance of having a clear passive income target
