“In the investment world, this is known as the ‘carry trade’ – borrowing at low rates to invest at higher rates. The same logic applies to the personal finances of your everyday life. Looking out three years from now… if we keep our cash invested and borrow the money for our outdoor kitchen from our credit union we will have a balance of roughly $41,686 in our investment accounts, and we will have paid out $37,200. We will be ahead of the game by nearly $4,500. The Federal Reserve is giving all of us a no-brainer opportunity: Borrow at cheap rates today and let your investable assets continue to grow for tomorrow.”
