Personal Finance (Not Investing) • Paying mortgage from EF?

$
0
0
I have been thinking about this for a week or two , and doesn’t seem like the brightest idea. But thought that I should ask smart people here

Mortgage left : 165K at 6 percent . Monthly payment including escrow is 2250, this year I have been paying 1500 per month extra towards principle

My EF: 22000 in HYSA( at about 4.8%)
Bank savings : 10 K
I bond : 66 K( more than two years ago, so can be taken out ), no fixed rate , so rates are dropping
T bills : 12 K

Have been in same job for more than 12 years, health care
Monthly expense ( we can survive on 11K), that’s includes pvt tuition and mortgage )

312 K in taxable ( index ), rest in Roth / tax deferred

I was thinking of taking 20 or 30 k out of I bonds as rates are lower and paying towards 6 percent mortgage . Would you do this ? Thank you


Thank you
