"In fact, although he was already very wealthy, Buffett himself used a 30-year mortgage in 1971 to finance the $150,000 purchase of a vacation home because he thought he could do better with the money than the interest he was paying for the house. (Note: Mortgage rates were in the 7.3% to 7.7% range in 1971)."
