I have moved on from totally agreeing with Keynesian economics.

I will comment on bond payments.

If market price of your house appreciates you sell you are getting the appreciation when you sell and not necessarily the total value of the bond you paid off.

We are in our house now for one year and not sure if we will move to a larger one. As a result we have decided not to pay off the bond now and will wait to see what we wish to do when the world allows us to travel again.
