Are you thinking of buying anytime in the next five years? It might be worth running the numbers to see whether paying off your SLs or having bigger down payment money will work better for you. I haven't looked at it that closely, so I have no idea which way it would come out. But I think I would check.
Aside from that - well, less debt is better than more. Just don't put too big a hit in your savings to pay them off if there's something down the road you can better put the money to [caveat: does not include gold jewlery for people who are not you.]
Whatever you do, do NOT contract with the Emeryville Ikea "home delivery service" to wrangle that Ektorp home. It took them days longer than promised to deliver the new bed. That was inconvenient, especially cause the folks who were getting the old bed were a tad bit impatient with me.
Now I wish Brenda would figure out all my investment stuff for me.
I hate probability. Now doing probability tree diagrams. I need alcohol.
I want... pie. With ice cream.
I'm laughing because when we in Laughlin, NV at a casino, I ordered their Pie/Pie special. Pot pie with a piece of pie for dessert. Pie. With Pie. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven.
Pie pie? Was that like pie squared?
I'm eatting chili spiced dried mangos. I'd rather have pie. Blueberry pie. Or rhubarb pie. Yummmmmy.
