[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] So, to answer your questions: our 300k investments do include savings/e fund (75k in a savings account, so not really an investment but a small yield, I consider that our emergency fund). I agree about automating the savings. I think I might just start putting away another 200.00/month toward the mortgage and up it from there to see what happens--or would it be better to put it in investments? the stock market is gangbusters at the moment, but I feel the confidence is not necessarily fully justified.... [/quote] If you're already maximizing retirement (including any catch-up extras your husband is now allowed since he's over 50), I would probably split the difference between contributing to the mortgage and investing. JMO. [/quote]
