pokeyman posted:I mean, general advice is never a substitute for running the numbers on your actual situation. The usual advice I see (and would give) is something like: I remember reading articles about taking out a sub 3% line of credit to buy equities which you earn more than that in the short term. I think the main point here is there were lots of debts people classified as inexpensive when they were acquired (e.g.: loc at prime + 1.5) which are now comparatively expensive at 8+%. Now that the numbers have changed, lots of top advice articles need to be updated. New investors are going to either blindly follow them because that's what they've been linked, or be confused as to why their numbers aren't adding up the way the article's are.
