My wife and I have sold a car that we own for $14,000 and have another which we owe $7800 on. The payments are very managable for us - but clearing the debt would feel great. We are planning on using the $ from the sale of the car to clear 100% of our consumer debit - but I can't help thinking that setting $5,000 aside and investing it might be a better move. We've also been talking about refi on our 2nd and using that for the car and some upgrades on our home - then the interest would transform into something deducitble - and it we had the cash set aside making some money of it's own...that would be wonderful. My wife is voting strongly for the 100% debit be-gone solution. Any advice? How can I pose a question to the community?

Any advice?

I think our members would be wise to read your blog. Congratulations on the write up in the Wall Street Journal as well. Hazzard - We can't wait either :-). We're working hard this week to get some features in place to make the site more interesting, hopefully generating more registrations. We are also very excited about the comparisons. Expect to see some comparison features in the next couple weeks. FMF - Thanks for the post. I think our members would be wise to read your blog.

Looks really professional. I can't wait until more people sign up and you get the comparison features going. It's always interesting to be able to slice and dice the data as a whole. Maybe you can start calculating averages, highs, lows, etc. Hazzard <a HREF="http://elym.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"> Everybody Loves Your Money </A> I’m glad you put the site up.
