Investing while paying off debt

Utilize the 50/30/20 Budget 

50/30/20 budget divides your take-home income into suggested spending in three categories: 50% of net pay for needs, 30% for wants and 20% for savings and debt repayment

For a more aggressive debt payoff budget you may want to use the 50/10/40 Budget dividing your take-home income into suggested spending in three categories: 50% of net pay for needs, 10% for wants and 40% for savings and debt repayment.
