No offense, but you shouldn't be borrowing any money if you have to come to an internet forum and ask others about how/what YOU should borrow. This is a PERSONAL decision that ONLY you and your spouse should be making.

I flat out disagree with you. I have been almost debt free since 2007 as I got my******together and be more responsible with my budget. I also know too many people who are in deep debts and over their head because they don't talk about it or research it.
