Now if you remember, I told you previously that our home equity line of credit (HELOC) balance was zero when we began using the Money Merge Account software.  The first withdrawal we made from our HELOC was $3500, the cost of the Money Merge Account.

Our first month’s interest on our HELOC was $1.72.  As I said in “Becoming Debt Free with the Money Merge Account Part 4” the interest on an open-ended HELOC is based on the daily average amount.  Because we deposited our income into the HELOC and let it sit for a time period until our bills were due the daily amount fluctuated and the amount of interest due on the HELOC is kept low.

In September 2008, the Money Merge Account software prompted us to withdraw $9200 from our HELOC and pay off one of the 2^nd mortgages of our rental properties.  That month our interest on our HELOC was $15.58.

As with other people in the past year, we have had our financial challenges.  All I can say is that we are very thankful that we had found United First Financial and were on the Money Merge Account.  Remember I told you we had rental properties? We ended up having some additional expenses that we hadn’t counted on such as installing a new roof and a major kitchen repair.

From September 2008 to February 2009 we ended up withdrawing $49,635 from our HELOC.  Only the withdrawal in September 2008 of $9200 was used to pay down the principal of our loans, the rest went to other projects and emergencies.

Here is the breakdown of our line of credit withdrawals:

With all of these withdrawals our Money Merge Account “Dashboard” kept us informed on the affect of each cost and the results are simply unbelievable.  One great feature that is part of the Money Merge Account software is the ability to know the “true cost” of expenditures.

Watch how the Money Merge Account is helping one man invest in his children

Back in August 2008 it took about 10 days to complete the paperwork, mail it in, and get it approved by United First Financial before we could get the Money Merge Account up and running.

We were very excited to get started so this time delay was somewhat frustrating to us. Nowadays United First Financial has made it much easier and quicker for clients to activate their Money Merge Accounts online.

Because we needed to set up our bank accounts properly with the bank that we had the HELOC with we actually didn’t get started on our quest to become debt free until September 2008.

Just a note: The United First Financial product is a financial coaching software. They do not provide any banking services so the bank comments I make are based on our experiences with well known banking establishments.

I want to digress here for a moment and tell you about a gigantic snafu that had happened when we originally got our HELOC from the bank.  This bank shall remain nameless in this article, but I want to let it be known that from the beginning we were not Read the rest of this entry

Our Money Merge Account Report Results

When we had our Money Merge Account analysis done our agent put our data in very conservatively.  This was a good thing, because even conservatively the financial report results are hard to believe.  We calculated our discretionary income, otherwise the amount of money we had left in our bank accounts at the end of each month as $125.

Our financial picture is much different than many other people’s because over the years we have purchased a few rental properties.  Because of these rental properties we have more mortgages than the norm. In fact we had seven 1^st mortgages, two 2^nd mortgages, a HELOC with a zero balance, and a car loan.

Our total loan debts added up to $489,869 with 26.5 years left to pay on our contracts.  The interest we owed the banks was $479,869.  This basically doubled our borrowed amount and made our total debt payment obligation add up to $969,738.  Sorry to bore you with numbers but to put it into simple terms when you sign on the dotted line for a 30-year mortgage you basically pay double for the ability to borrow the money from the lender.

Our analysis results guaranteed that we would have all of our debt paid off in 16.3 years; saving 10.2 years that we would no longer have to make our mortgage payments. This debt also included the cost of the Money Merge Account program.  Our loan debt Read the rest of this entry

In February of 2008 my husband and I met with our financial planner and he presented us with information about United First Financial® and the Money Merge Account^™ program.  We were impressed with what the software could do to help us pay off debt quickly, but we felt that the price tag of $3500 was too high of a price to pay, even though we were told at the time that the software program would pay for itself within a few months.  We decided at that time against purchasing the Money Merge Account and went on with our lives as normal, not making much headway to eliminate debts.

Four months go by and now it’s June. One day on the radio we heard an advertisement about a new program that let you purchase solar power electricity through a lease program and have it pay for itself in 10 years through the reduction in your electric bills. We also learned that there were solar tax credits and solar tax incentives from our city and the federal government.

Because of the solar tax incentives and “going green” is the right thing to do, my husband and I decided that we wanted to look into having solar power electricity installed for our home.

For over a month we had seven different solar Read the rest of this entry

This is the first in a series of articles on the subject of how my husband and I are going about paying off debts and becoming mortgage free. These are my actual facts and figures about my personal experience with the United First Financial® Money Merge Account^™ system.

The Internet is a wonderful thing.  Anyone can let their opinion be known and profess to be an “expert” on any topic, even me!   It’s difficult to remember that just a few short years ago what resources we would use when we wanted information on anything. We might try asking our friends their opinion or purchase the latest copy of Consumers Report magazine or maybe even go to the library and try to find the resources there.

But today for most people things are different.  These days we just “Google” it or go to “Bing”.  And what do we find when we research something on the Internet?  Depending on the search engine and the topic, the results we get can be in the millions.

What happens when you “Google” the Money Merge Account?  I did that the other day and found 387,000 results.  When I used “Bing” I got 7,730,000 results.  And what kind of results do we get?  We get information from the United First Financial corporate website and we get lots of different agents talking about United First Financial and the Money Merge Account.

In addition to that you also get a handful of Read the rest of this entry
