re: #295 Killgore Trout

Because I had the money on hand and it saves me a lot in interest. Even in good economic times cash flow can be tough for me to wait between sales. The monthly payment is a big liability. It ends up being a really good thing that I did that. If it was a choice between health insurance and paying my mortgage I would definitely be canceling my insurance right now and probably be turned over to collections for past due bills. Things could be worse.

It appears you saved yourself some interest money - not sure how much - but now are in danger of losing your health insurance.

I think I would have managed my payments differently, If I was in your shoes.
