[QUOTE="Fox Fan, post: 15738954, member: 49259"] Just one idea for your consideration: If you've got a mortgage at 3%, and write off 35% of the interest paid, you're effectively borrowing money at 1.95% interest. The 10-year federal treasury currently returns 2.3% and is as safe an investment as they come. So, if you're in the position of having the money to pay off your mortgage or invest in the 10-year treasury note, which option makes the most financial sense? To me, it looks like the guy with a $1,000,000 mortgage who is investing as above gains $3,500 each year over the guy who paid off his mortgage. I'll grant there are wiser ways to invest, but this is the simplest, clearest example of the point. [/QUOTE]
