Most interest/dividend payments will be far below what you’ll pay in interest on a loan, with few exceptions.
minus-squareryathal@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 months agoInvesting in the stock market instead of paying a loan is stupidly risky. There’s a few loans that are possible where you could get a rate lower than some savings accounts, but you will only net 1-2% on your money in that scenario.
