There is a certain "good" feeling you get from paying your home off.
That's what I would do / did yrs ago. The experts & tax folks will tell you otherwise. But for me it works. Mentally if nothing else.
I too am looking at bond funds. The only question I have is:
For the past 30 years we have been in a declining interest rate environment. And bonds have done well.
Say the next 30 years is an interest rising environment. What should that do to bond fund investments? Its got me spooked.
Hopefully someone here can shed some light on this.
