I have the opportunity, via a "windfall of cash" to have enough money to buy my house. I owe about 40% of the current value of the house. With this windfall, I could pay it off, and have some cash left over. The other option is that I put the money into the market, where it will (hopefully) get more interest. The payments aren't a stretch for me now. However, I'll also be unemployed via this windfall, and if I were to pay off my house, I'd have no payments other than ongoing utilities. That would put me in a position to either 1) last a while, or 2) take some risks and go for a big pop at at startup.</p> Finance finance housing mortage payoff refinance Mon, 24 Sep 2007 19:03:48 +0000 http://www.loani.org/pay_off_my_house_or_put_it_in_the_market_0 <p>Pay off my house, or put it in the stock market?
