“We paid cash for our home 10 years ago and I thank the lord we did.”

During that time my stocks have been providing 3% dividends each year while the stocks have more than doubled.

The dividends are qualified due to having held the stocks over a year so have special low/zero tax rates.

Till recently the mortgage interest was deductible.

Ditto.

Built a new home when we retired 10 years ago and paid cash for it all.

We have never regretted it.

It’s always good to be debt free.
