we don't have one (he paid it off a few years ago, I guess this was part of his plan too) but we do have a property tax bill that works out to be ~ 1k a month.[/quote]

He sounds really fiscally conservative, op.  I genuinely don't understand where your fears are coming from.  [/quote]

I am really risk adverse. We have a really nice life right now. Aside from the equity thing, he actually really likes current job and the people he works with a lot. So I just never thought he'd seriously do this. He always talked about it in a "if things were different" kind of way. But things are not different. We have three little kids.[/quote]

Op, I'm going to come right out and say your fears are not rational.  Your dh (and you!) have done an amazing job with money so far.  Let him roll the dice on this one.   He's literally earned it.  [/quote]
