Here is my son, Staff Sergeant Christopher Dimmick, USAF, a Crew Chief on the B-1 Bomber out of Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota. Christopher joined the Air Force in 2001, receiving his initial training in San Antonio, Texas. He went on to specialized training in Wichita Falls, Texas, and continued his training at Ellsworth. Christopher did a six-month tour in Oman working with both the Operation Enduring Freedom effort in Afghanistan and the initial effort in the Operation Iraqi Freedom in Iraq. In 2003, he did a tour to Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. Earlier this year, Christopher finished his leadership training and is now a Staff Sergeant. He and his wife Shanti just had their first baby, Olivia, born Feb. 28, 2005! |

Financing Your Home >Your Mortgage
Many homeowners overlook the mortgage payment as a tool for financial management. They get the mortgage, move in, make the payments, and pay off the loan eventually. Smart homeowners know that by properly adding to their monthly payments, even by a small amount, they can substantially reduce the term of their loan, not to mention the total interest they will pay. In fact, prepaying one full year of a standard mortgage can save thousands of dollars in interest. The key is to do it properly and to find the right lender for whom prepayment is not a problem.
More progressive lenders allow the option to add money to the monthly payment which goes directly to the principal. How much should you add? It's largely a personal decision, and it depends on your cash flow. But be mindful of the fact that the mortgage interest rate is probably the lowest interest loan you will find, so don't short yourself with prepayment only to run up credit card debt!
