Unfortunately though I haven't been able to take advantage of the volatility to start off 2016 in my taxable FI accounts although I'm hoping to get that corrected soon.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-85167455606040148082016-01-20T00:41:31.163-06:002016-01-20T00:41:31.163-06:00Hey JC,

Good choice on the mortgage, hopefully share prices continue to become more attractively valued. <br /><br />Best regards,<br />DBDividend Beginnerhttp://www.dividendbeginner.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-66874073004194406312016-01-19T17:18:33.251-06:002016-01-19T17:18:33.251-06:00FI Fighter,

Ideally I'd like to have the mortgage paid off by the time we reach the crossover point because that significantly reduces our monthly expenses. Our mortgage alone is just under $11k per year which would require a portfolio of $270k-$360k based on a 3-4% yield. <br /><br />Lots of planning ahead which I think is how this year is going to look.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-16646108024353177642016-01-19T17:14:30.655-06:002016-01-19T17:14:30.655-06:00Hustler,

I can't wait until we average that but it'll still be a while until we get there. I hope to really bump up my online presence and writing income this year but it'll definitely be a lot of work.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-18297410882505128202016-01-19T17:12:52.277-06:002016-01-19T17:12:52.277-06:00Kate,

Although eventually I need to make the switch to pay down the mortgage. Lots of calculations to run through in order to make the switch though.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-12716803537790474162016-01-19T17:10:47.674-06:002016-01-19T17:10:47.674-06:00Liquid,

Since I'm not able to invest much capital right now I'd love to see the market reverse course.

I was down about $900 in December but January is looking like an even worse month so far, lol. It's a good thing we both have a reliable stream of dividend income. :) Speaking of which, I referenced your dividend page in my recent post yesterday. #TeamDividendGrowthLiquidhttp://www.freedomthirtyfiveblog.com/2016/01/dividend-growth-investing-stocks.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-10059434200563035932016-01-18T15:35:00.051-06:002016-01-18T15:35:00.051-06:00I like that idea to keep your mortgage longer at s...I like that idea to keep your mortgage longer at such a low rate :) More to invest.Katehttp://www.whatsthatcard.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-5552782565763895412016-01-18T11:48:28.756-06:002016-01-18T11:48:28.756-06:00Great month, and I'm with you regarding mortga...Great month, and I'm with you regarding mortgages... 30 year fixed low rate? I'll want to hold onto that as long as I can. In fact, we just completed two refis and locked in 4.125% for 30 years, increasing the cash flow quite a bit (4.75% before).<br /><br />Over the long run, you'll come out miles ahead using any excess funds to invest, instead.<br /><br />Cheers!FI Fighterhttp://www.fifighter.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-27447931240504538762016-01-18T11:38:37.476-06:002016-01-18T11:38:37.476-06:00Awesome month for you JC.
