New here and I had a question about paying off debt.
First the background:
Partner and I are both students and combined our debts are:
about $47,000 on a 30 year mortgage ($460 a month)
My student loans (subsidized and unsubsidized) about $24,000
Her student loans (subsidized and unsubsidized) about $16,500
We both have about 1-2 years of undergrad left and then plan on going to grad school in geology and computer science.
My car (Honda Fit) at $11,045. The loan is from my dad at 0% interest and he just wants me to pay him back as I can.
Her car (Dodge Stratus) at $1,900. This loan is from her mom with the same situation as mine.
We carpool in my honda fit 3-4 times a week but can't do it everyday because of school/work schedules; and we make a combined income of about $2,300 a month.
We also have about $6000 in savings which is for emergencies and for home renovations(which are pretty extensive but we are doing the labor ourselves)
My question is which debt should I pay off first? The unsubsidized loans are the only debts getting interest and mathematically that obviously makes the most sense to pay towards. But, our parents are not expecting us to pay off our loans to them anytime soon but I wonder if it would be better to pay those off first anyway?
Thanks guys, just trying to get all our finances in order and have a plan of attack.
