2. Paying down a mortgage reduces liquidity. Long term that's a great rate (although you could refinance for something better perhaps). And after taxes the real rate of return is more like 3.75% on that investment. So go find a CD that gives you 2% in the short term if you want something that's about as secure as you can get (up to the FDIC limit of $250k).
