Passive Income Update – December 2021

man with fireworks

To help with preparation and planning in terms of cashflow, here are the interest rates on my accounts, using current balances for the month with the interest rate on promotional 0% expiry. I have also included any fees, where applicable:

AccountBalanceInterest Rate on ExpiryInterest/Minimum Payment / Month
0%-6m$3300023%$632
0%-7m$640023%$122.67
0%-10m$150023%$28.75
0%-10m$630013%$68.25
Family Emergency Debt LOC$445006.34%$279.72
HELOC$48002.45%$9.8
Balanced Owed: $96500 || Total Interest Only Payment: $1086.78

Of course, the scary interest-only payment is the one that’s expiring soonest. Here are my balance projections 6 months later, assuming I don’t add new debt and continue my payments (which will be outlined in January’s net worth report):

AccountBalanceInterest Rate on ExpiryInterest/Minimum Payment / Month
0%-0m$3150023%$603.75
0%-1m$490023%$93.92
0%-4m$023%$0
0%-4m$380013%$41.17
Family Emergency Debt LOC$439006.34%$276.56
HELOC$43002.45%$8.78
Balance Owed: $88400 || Total Interest Only Payment: $1024.18

I have some projects that should be coming online towards the summer which should help address this issue, but for now the debt is quite manageable. I will be planning out my debt repayments over the next few months to reduce my interest expenses for the high interest rates as much as possible.

More details about how I plan on tackling my debt will be revealed over the coming months, across my various weekly posts.
