    Hi steve, simple question

    From reading your book I was of the impression that all Loan repayments are tax deductable. Is this true or is it just the loan interest that is tax deductable.

    Thanks heaps

    Hi,

    The principal component of loan repayments is not deductible.

    And the interest component is only deductible to the extent that the loan it attracts to was taken out for profitable investing purposes.

    Cheers,

    Steve McKnight
