I'm rather liquid right now, but I'd rather have my money doing more lifting then in my mortgage that I can comfortably make my monthly payments on.
This, it is how I was able to afford a new car, a house, and paying cash for an r32 to be imported. we "qualified" for a lot more than we spent, but being comfortable and really leaving within what we made has been such a blessing.
