Im curious if I should pay off a big chunk like 10k or even all my student loans. Additional info:x200B;Currently have 28k in a high interest savings account 1.75Loans have approximately 6 interest rateLiving expenses per month are about 3,500 but also trying to save for big life purchases such as a houseActively pay 500month to chip away at them and put another 500month away in my savings accountNo other debt have some credit cards that I pay off completely each monthx200B;Someone mentioned to me that paying off a chunk could hurt my credit score. I just wanted to see if there was anything else I should take into account before I make a decision. x200B;Thanks so much!  <response>: At that interest rate, yes pay it off today.
