Jacquie’s Financial Tip: Always round-up when paying off installment debt such as mortgages, car loans, or student loans. That helps expedite your payoff, and you will find that you won’t even miss the $20-$40 each month. In the end, the money you saved on the extra interest goes back to you, where it belongs.
