[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Sorry for going off topic. We don’t really do much financial planning but we are financially responsible by living within our means and have a general big picture sense of what to do.

If you want actual numbers, I think student loan interest was 2.8% and mortgage was 2.95%. If we decide to pay down the student debt, that means DH will need to work full time for 5 extra years. And since we still haven’t even half funded our kids college or our retirement, realistically speaking, I’m realizing now that DH will probably need to work full time for at least another 15 years. Unless I find some really lucrative career and go full time, which probably won’t happen.

Time to break the bad news to DH...

Right. But you can declare bankruptcy and walk away from the house loan in an emergency. The student Loan will follow yo forever. [/quote]

But in the event of death, the student loan gets cancelled. So given the interest rates on both the loans, even if I were to deduct the mortgage interest, it's kind of a wash. - OP.[/quote]
