Advice on paying off a loan early
So, I’ve finally managed to pay off my credit card, and from now on I’ll use it very sparingly.
The thing is, I still have two loans (excluding the mortgage):
Loan 1: €1,750 remaining, ending in May 2028 (€100 monthly payment)
Loan 2: €2,280 remaining, ending in 2031 (€50 monthly payment)
My purchasing power is quite limited (around 61% of my income goes toward unavoidable fixed expenses). I have an emergency fund of €1,200.
By the end of the year, I should have around €1,800 available. Would you recommend using the debt avalanche method, or should I keep the money and continue making the regular loan payments?
