Although 98k minus 45k sounds good, the equation is missing the growth potential that the retirement investments will bring over time.

A 5.35% mortgage is a bargain. I spent a lot of years paying off my mortgage that was 9.75% and we made it through. Be patient. For a regular family (not independently wealthy) a home usually takes years to pay off. I would never draw down an IRA or 401k to pay down a mortgage. Nor would I borrow against them.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
