Do you have a pension? Just curious.

I would do that math on that before committing to paying off the student loans. If your company is matching your 401K and your student loan interest rate is low, then over the long haul you end up with more money investing in your 401K (assuming it beats the interest on the student loan). I'm in the same boat and found an online calculator to help figure it out. https://studentloanhero.com/calculators/student-loan-payoff-vs-invest-calculator/

I switched all my retirement accounts to index funds. Fees are way cheaper and over time you do exactly the same as trying to beat the market.

If you can get into real estate now or are already in it then yes. If the Fed does increase the interest rates to where they should be rental properties will be even better as there will be less and less people who will be able to afford to buy a house. If you are going into real estate to flip houses I would hold back until there is more information about what the Fed is going to do in terms of interest rates. Having less buyers if the interest rates do go up will put a hurt on home sales but rentals should see an increase. Yes, I did not mean flipping houses. Fixed interest rate borrowing. Can also invest in a REIT if you can't buy real estate.

Given the expected rise in inflation, real estate is a good place to be.
