[quote=Anonymous]I don't agree with a lot of what Ramsey says, or Suze "Girlfriend" Ormen. Both are way too conservative for me, and I am a very careful spender. Our rate is 3.25%. We want to be mortgage free when we retire BUT we don't want to be cash poor and we want the write-off... And we also realize that our rate is so low that putting too much cash towards paying off our mortgage would be foolish. We would rather up our 401K contributions or increase or emergency fund - to 1 yr instead of 3-6 months. I say one year because DH lost his job a few years ago and it took him ONE FULL YEAR to find another job. we were unprepared to say the least. Anyhow, we calculated that if we overpay our mortgage but just $100 every month, our home would be paid off 6 years early. that's a pretty good trade off! [/quote]
