Low Interest Loan Repayment or CD/HY Savings

Looking to pay off $15k of student loan debt of my partner. It’s something we could wipe out with cash on hand if we wanted to relatively quickly. But one of the loans is 4.5%. Am I better off just riding that out but keeping the cash in for that loan in a HY savings account or keep reinvesting it in short term CD’s that...

It's a pure math equation. You know you'll have more money at the end of the day if you keep as much as you can in a HYSA.

So do the math on exactly how much more.

Is that amount worth your peace of mind over that long a time period? Is your partner someone you want to spend that much money on right now?

These are simple questions to ask: maybe harder to answer. But once you have them, just make a choice and be happy with it.

I'd rather have tightly-written shows with 3 seasons than meandering shows that don't know how/where they're going to end with producers who are incompetent at steering things (cough Kurtzman & DIS)

It seems to be available for sale on Amazon Video, Apple TV, Google TV, the Microsoft Store, and Vudu (source: https://watch.plex.tv/show/star-trek-strange-new-worlds)

This was always one of my favorite renditions of it. I had it as my desktop background for years.

If you need to stay nearly-liquid, another option through Ally is the No-Penalty CD.

Withdraw your full balance and interest earned any time after the first 6 days of funding your CD.

Current rates are 4.55% APY, vs just 4% for just their Savings Account.

Speaking personally, I had 0 trouble at all with dissolving the no penalty CD exactly as-stated.

Reddit seems all doom and gloom on the topic but what about Lemmy? And the future of Star Trek?

I saw someone on Reddit wondering why the community was so sure of Trek going dark again with Paramount not doing so well financially. Seeing the response was unfortunate as most people feel that it might be a bad time for Trek. And I guess it makes sense with the Hollywood strikes as well....

@oDDmON there's no way this isn't trolling... You're not going to have trouble finding star trek on bit torrent.

Idaho opts out of nearly $15 million that would feed children this summer. Why? ( www.idahostatesman.com )

Idaho has decided not to participate in a federal program that would have provided $14.8 million to feed low-income students during the summer, a decision that impacts about 123,000 children in need, according to the Food Research and Action Center.

@xuxebiko Their GOP members likely weren't able to find a way to embezzle it easily enough.
