[quote=Anonymous]Personally, I would rather invest in the stock market than in paying down a mortgage at 3 percent. Having said that, if the choice is between paying down a 3 percent mortgage or earning close to zero on a savings account, then I would pay down the mortgage. Or, as pp suggested, you could do some of both. Pay down 150 K of your mortgage, and start investing a couple of grand a month in the market - stick to low fee index ETFs or mutual funds - can't go wrong with Vanguard. Whatever you do, I would not just have $250K sitting in the bank getting negative real interest rates...[/quote]
