Although I do not agree with some of Suze's finance advice, she did raise a good point in this particular case. However, I still disagree w/the way she goes about it, and choose instead - as mentioned above - to go with "the percentage approach". This ensures I am building my savings continually, while paying MOST of my available funds toward my high interest debt. I continue to wonder when people lost the inclination to save <strong>at least some</strong> no matter what. Even if you can only do $25/month... that is better than $0/month. To save debate, I fully understand the DR approach of $1,000 in EF, then 100% toward high int debt until gone... I just don't buy it. I'd rather always continue to realize at least a portion of my own hard earned money. Cheers! Ahhh… good ole Suze!
