[quote=Anonymous]We off our 5.5% mortgage really quickly some years ago. I don’t regret it. In your case, if you want the peace of mind of a “paid off house,” I would build up a bunch of FDIC-insured CDs that are paying about 5 or 6%. When that number matches your mortgage balance, consider your house “paid off,” but keep it in the CDs. You can even use half the CD interest to actually make the monthly payments. I totally get the feeling of security. It is VERY nice. But so is math. [/quote]
