Hey /pf,
I've been working my ass off from home. I'm a temporary worker and only can work 20 hours a week, but my pay is $25/hr so I've managed to save up quite a bit.
I have about $1000 in the bank currently. I am getting a $5,000 deposit from my University's Financial aid for the quarter, $2300 of which is a student loan I accepted earlier this year, $2700 being grant money.
With this money: I paid off my credit card bill of $2000, and I'm saving $750 for april's rent. Which leaves me with $3250 in extra money.
My questions:
- Is it right to pay off my credit card in full while I can?
- What should I do with the extra money? I'd like to invest somehow. Currently I have it all in my savings account. Whats a good investment to make with this? OR should I start paying off student loans early?
- Is it worth getting financial advising at this point? I was contacted by a close friend who's a financial advisor who offered me his services.
