[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, why would she want to pay off the mortgage early? As my banker BIL puts it, "better to die in debt":-) She can just enjoy her cash by paying her expenses with it while grocery shopping, etc, so she avoids having to declare it and paying taxes on it.[/quote] Yeah I think I agree here. Use the cash to pay as much expenses as possible. It is also possible to pay off most credit cards, utilities with cash. Let's say the OP regularly spends 2K a month on credit cards, she can provide cash for him to pay it off. He can in turn send 2,000 check to the mortgage. If OP or the elderly lady has a large Property tax bill that they pay directly, a lot of cash can be funneled into paying the bill. Example: Use cash and buy $500 visa gift cards at the grocery store. Use the gift cards to pay the property tax bill online. Of course, can certainly put in small cash deposits into the bank every month, just keep it small. [/quote]
