We also paid off our house early, in 2004, and feel very good about that. Once we got free of those mortgage payments, our credit card debt just seemed to melt away. (My wife and I had a tough time paying off the mortgage, and resorted to borrowing on our credit cards to stay solvent.) I discovered the secret to staying ahead in the stock market. Want to know? It's not selling. We haven't sold any securities in 10 years, and we're doing great.
