Message	...paying off a house eliminates risk, agreed. You're also losing money by paying it off. "Owning a house is financially beneficial" - agreed, in a good market, you're earning more principal every day. More accurately - "having a mortgaged home is financially beneficial." If instead you take that money and invest it at a higher interest rate than your mortgage, you make up for the interest penalty on your mortgage and then some. It's not hard to beat today's interest rates with smart or even mediocre investing. Recursively Yours, Kenny... PETZ Member #5 You guys rock socks.
