We’re kicking off the week by answering listener questions! And if you have a question that you’d like for us to answer on the show, we’d love for you to submit your own via HowToMoney.com/ask , send us your voice memo. Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!

1 - Should I pay off my car loan early or use that money for a down payment on a house?

2 - Is Goodbill a legit medical bill negotiation site worth trying?

3 - As a travel nurse that doesn’t stay with any hospital all that long, how should I approach investing for retirement?

4 - My buddy thinks it’s weird that I pay $25 for a gym membership so I can shower after my bike commute to work- frugal or cheap?

5 - Is it worth depleting my IRA if I can avoid getting a pricey mortgage or even reduce the amount that I have to borrow?
