    Hello,

    A. With the lease on the car – If you are paying a high interest rate (eg. 12-20%) then it may be worth your time borrowing against your home loan to transfer this debt onto a lower interest rate (5-7%). But this depends if you have the will power to then pay that off.

    B. If your figures are accurate and you earn $4,200/month and only need to spend $1,500/month in living expenses then you are in a very good position. You have over $2,500/month that you can use to invest.

    Have you considered investing in positive cash flow property? This is property that brings you an income above all of the expenses.

    It is possible that you could borrow against the equity in your home for a deposit on a new investment property.

    Over time rents will most likely increase, then you will find yourself in a position where you have a lot of money coming in from the properties and your expenses are quite low.

    Is this something that you would consider doing?
