Tell All Tuesday ~ RME Edition
Well, today is the last day for the Revolution Money exchange $25 bonus for signing up. I said when I posted my referral code, that whatever I made from referrals, I would let the readers decide which debt I apply it to. The great news is I maxed out my 50 referrals so I have $525 to apply to one of our three remaining debts. Yay! And if you still need a referral for RME, I replaced my referral banner with Emily’s from Remodeling This Life (with her permission of course!) so that anyone who wants a referral still will get one. Without further ado, here is the poll:
I will leave the poll open until next Tuesday, and then I will post what the readers decided and make a payment somewhere. Hurrah!
I didn’t make any new payments to debt this week, so my total % paid off remains 35.38%. I did receive $50 from My Survey that is now in the student loan payoff fund. I will also be making a car payment this week which will lower the debt total before next week. And then next week I will be making a $525 payment to something! I am excited to find out to what. ![]()

Since I’m a greedy kind of person, and if I were in your shoes, I’d be looking at that car loan and saying to myself, “The $525 plus the $1,800 stimulus check and one more payment would be wiping that baby out” Then I could breath a little freer. I realize that it is the interest rate that is motivating your direction — but just to see one less item on the list would be a comfort to me.

I vote for the monkey!

Since I’m a numbers nerd, I have to vote for the one with the highest interest rate - your spouses student loan. Emotionally I would want to put it toward my own student loan because I think I would be jealous of that shrinking balance. I feel silly just writing that but it’s the truth.

Monkey!

I agree with Rita - one less loan would be the way forward for me!

I say tackle the highest interest! (Though here’s a question for a fellow numbers geek…if one balance is significantly larger, does that perhaps mean its lower interest could still be accumulating faster than higher interest on lower balance?)
Or a monkey.

How could you not love a monkey!
Seriously, I agree with Rita. You’d have to feel great to be so close to finishing off that debt!

I voted for paying off your car. Yeah, it has the lowest interest rate but my thinking is you’re almost done paying for it, why not hurry it up a little?

@Mrs Micah - I don’t know exactly but I accrue less interest on my student loan (so far) per month than my spouse does. So far. lol.

Hi,
I love your blog! I make it a point to read it every day!
Just wanted to let you know that they extended the offer through May 15! Is there anyway that you could post my link so that I too can apply it to a debt

Hi
As the post says, I’ve replaced my referral with another bloggers’ already - and if that gets used up, I have my spouse’s referral to use. Good luck!

You didn’t have go out to supper at a high end french restaurant, so I voted monkey! I expect you will just put more against your husband’s student loan, however.
