How to read this: The dangerous line is "first month's interest." If your payment is barely above it, almost nothing goes to the balance and the payoff stretches for years. The extra-payment table shows the real magic of debt optimization — small, consistent overpayments compound into months saved and real money kept. Find that extra in the money basics guide.
