Pay down 6% mortgage or keep in brokerage I have $400,000 in my taxable brokerage account and owe about $375000 on my mortgage at 6% interest.

Getting vision insurance vs paying out of pocket? Hello. I just moved to the US and was unlucky enough that my eyeglass frames broke after a couple of months, so I was thinking about replacing both lenses and frames (they’re 5 years old already).

Capital One is doing soft credit checks on me every 3 months… I don’t like it. I ran my credit on AnnualCreditReport.com (the actual free one, that they are legally obligated to supply in my understanding) and on Equifax I am seeing CAPITAL ONE BANK USA NA doing a soft credit check every 3 months or so for the last year. I know that this does not negatively affect my credit score, but it still bugs me. I know this is how t…
