Uh, the first two years we didn't make any payments on those loans. So the unit grew as a capitalized the interest. Then I started making monthly payments on those loans, uh, for money that we were making in the business once we became fairly profitable. Uh, so here's my question. Uh, these loans, they, there's six total loans, uh, excuse me, six total inch policies.
And my parents took out about $1.4 million in, uh, in face value insurance. plus the additional insurance they purchased over the years as they were, I think they made some overpayments in the past, things like that. I have borrowed about $600,000 against the policy. So here's my question. What's the remaining cash value?

The remaining, the net cash value is that today is about $200,000 and the death benefit as of today and all of them combined is about $1.06 million. Uh, my question is, do I bother paying these loans down? And if I do, do I use your snowball effect and go for the lowest balanced loans first? Or do I pay them off all evenly? Cause, Technically, they all have the same interest rate.

It's basically like one large basket, right? So am I even benefiting from the snowball considering there's no minimum payment on these things, right? I can pay them at any time, any way I want. I could make the payment. I could not let the interest capitalize. You know, you can manage them any way you like. So what do I do with them? Should I pay them? Should I not?

There's also an extra $200,000. They also, over the years, purchased an extra $200,000 of insurance by overpayments. Paid up additions. Yeah, paid up additions.

That's actually my second job.

How much? The business insurance. How much?
