Making sense of Loans vs Savings
Post Body

With student loan repayments resuming in the next few months, I've been trying to plan out what would be the best method of repayment for me. My goal is to minimize the amount I need to pay across my lifetime to pay off the loan. It is $3550 at 3.73% apr and can be lowered to 3.48% if I set up auto pay. However, I also have a HYSA that currently has 4.15% apy. Since I make more money putting $1 into the savings account than removing $1 of debt, does it make sense to go on a repayment plan for my loan for the lowest monthly payment, since any money I could put towards the loan would curently be worth more in my HYSA?
