In this video, Dave Ramsey answers Erics question: If I have a 30 year mortgage, but know that you recommend a 15, should I refinance or not? Dave tells Eric that since he has a 3% rate, which is great, he should keep his current loan. If he pays extra on a 30 year to where the amount is the same that it would have been on a 15, then it pays off in the same time. Dont refinance to pay a 30 like a 15 if you have an advantageous interest rate. BUT, he says, wait and do this until he gets rid of his car loan. Once he is at baby step 4, debt free except for the house, THEN pay extra on your house. Doing the steps out of order can wreak havoc on your financial health.
