- klipklop 4y agoCongrats for getting out of that trap. Now for the next one. Pay off the mortgage. In my opinion you are not "free" until some bank or landlord cant take your housing away from you.
- klyrs 4y agoIndeed. Those "near-zero" interest rates you mentioned? They don't last. We could only lock in a 5-year rate -- the rates that come after that loom large in our awareness.
