START HERE: Should I use my dividends to pay off DEBT or REINVEST for FINANCIAL FREEDOM?

Episode 16

In this Start Here episode, I tackle a thoughtful and highly relevant question:
“Should I reinvest my dividends OR use them to pay down my mortgage?”

As a Financial Planner and dividend-focused investor, I help unpack this decision from both a practical and mindset perspective. Explaining how each option can serve different goals and life stages, and how to think clearly about risk, return, and long-term financial freedom.

🔍 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

What dividends are and why they’re powerful
The benefits of reinvesting dividends for compound growth
When it might make sense to direct dividends to pay down debt
How to weigh interest saved vs income earned
Why there’s no "one-size-fits-all" approach
How to stay focused on your goals and timeline
The importance of having a clear passive income target
