Should you pay off debt with mutual funds?

It depends on the rate of interest you pay on the debt and also the rate of returns the mutual fund is generating. Let us say you have a loan with a bank with a preferential rate of interest of 5% per year and your mutual fund is earning 15% or more per year - in that case I would not payoff my debt by selling the mutual fund. Whereas, if my loan is charged at around 12% per year and my mutual fund is growing at 15% per year, i would pay off the debt using the mutual fund and start a fresh investment plan. This way we would save a lot on the interest we pay from our pocket.
