It is better to take out no loans, pay everything in cash and live off your investments. 401Ks suck, I have a pension.

Not everyone is a used car salesman.

I don't mean to argue and hope I don't come off in that tone. I'm just trying to share what I've studied in detail. But, I'm human and may be wrong somewhere. If there is something I am missing, point it out.

You're right. Interest rates do destroy the middle class. I am talking about the interest rate on a GIUL, which is 2.5%, which is not high. Two of the biggest killers for the middle class is procrastination and lack of discipline. Which then ties into financing things they don't need to buy at high interest rates. But when someone does need to buy something, wouldn't it be better to take out a 2.5% loan from yourself and then pay yourself back rather than take out a loan from a bank?

Really?! >> Interest rates are what destroy us "middle class" and if you think interest rates are good for your savings then keep paying it. >>
