Each week BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald's Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it's how a few tweaks could set you free from your mortgage years earlier. Hosted by Frances Cook.
Buying and paying off your home is one of the biggest financial decisions many of us will make.

For the latest podcast I talked to Rupert Gough from Mortgage Lab.
