I would only pay off a house if I was going to live in it until I died. Which I am and did by the way.

I would put extra money first in stuff that I will need at some point in my life. The govt. will steal the 401K and the house will be worth half it’s present value in two more years.

I truly believe that anyone who thinks they are going to “retire” 5 years from now to anything other than selling apples on the street corner is deluded. Hoping to be wrong, but fear I am not.

How are things in the great beyond? I've always wondered about that, lol.
