Rant: my uncle in Tulsa swore I should never pay off my smallest credit card first, and 14 months later I owe him an apology
He kept telling me to throw every extra dollar at the highest interest card instead of chasing the quick win, and I ignored him for almost a year because the small balance payoff felt better. Last month I finally ran the numbers on my two cards and the interest I paid doing it my way was $640 more than his way would have cost. He never rubbed it in, just asked if I wanted him to look at the rest of my budget. Anyone else get stubborn about advice from family even when they clearly know what they are talking about?

That stubborn streak with family advice is so real, I did the same thing with my dad about my truck.
