Here’s a simple example of how money can work when it is structured properly.
Let’s say you were able to borrow $100,000 using a home equity line of credit or secured borrowing at approximately 4.25%,
Over 25 years, that payment would be roughly $540/month,
Now let’s look at the other side.
That same $100,000 could potentially be loaned out privately, secured properly, at 12.5% over the same 25-year period.
That payment coming back to you would be roughly $1,068/month.
So the math looks like this:
𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁: $𝟱𝟰𝟬/𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵
M𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻: $𝟭,𝟬𝟲𝟴/𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵
Difference: about $528/month in positive cash flow
Before taxes, legal costs, risk, and proper due diligence, of course.
That is the power of understanding good debt versus bad debt.
Bad debt takes money out of your pocket.
Good debt, when structured correctly, can help create income, cash flow, and long-term wealth.
This is one of the reasons wealthy people often think differently about money. They don’t just ask, “How much will this cost me?”
They ask:
“C𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗺𝗲?”
That is a very different conversation.
The key is education, structure, security, and knowing what you are doing.
Debt is not automatically bad.
Uneducated debt is bad.
Strategic debt can be powerful.
Who knew math could be this interesting?
