That's not really high rate debt --- so what you have to gauge -- is if you INVEST -- what is your TOTAL RETURN going to look like -- vs -- just paying down the debt and maybe adding some to the principal from time to time as you can.


At 6.8% --- I'd lean toward trying to get total return on my investments. Now if it was above 10% then I'd pay it off asap.
