Financial Planner Featured in Two Financial Articles

Guiding your journey to financial well-being. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) November 07, 2015 - Rockaway, NJ - Jim McCarthy, CFP®, ChFC ®, Directional Wealth Management, was recently featured in two financial articles in New Jersey Money Help and NJ101.5.

"Secrets will hurt your money life" discusses the issues that can arise when working with two financial planners at the same time, especially if hiding their existence from one another. Regarding the subject, Jim McCarthy says, "The basis of any good advisor/client relationship - be it doctor/patient; CPA/taxpayer; or CFP professional/investor - is open communication." He goes on to say that nothing prevents someone from hiring a new CFP, but it is pivotal for this new advisor to be informed of all assets, regardless of who is managing them.

In "Pros and cons of pre-paying a mortgage" in New Jersey Money Help and "Should you prepay your mortgage" in NJ101.5 Jim McCarthy explains the reason why pre-paid mortgage payments do not change your monthly payment is " there is an amortization schedule set by the lender, which doesn't change during the life of the mortgage." Jim's comments on the subject make it clear that when an early payment is made, that money goes directly towards the loan balance. By "making additional principal payments every month, you can significantly reduce your interest payments over time" asserts McCarthy.
