such considerations that should be carefully planned and
organized before resorting to pay-off your home mortgage.

stocks and bonds, a bank savings account, or any other
readily available form of cash.
Paying off your home mortgage can be a rewarding experience, but
be sure to consider your overall financial status before making
the decision to do so. The wrong decision can put you at great
financial risk.

means, go for it. After all, nothing beats a worry-free,
mortgage-free financial status.
