That's the problem. It ONLY doubled. The S&P gained 2.7x without reapplying the dividends. And I am willing to bet it gave you more headaches than what a line in your Fidelity Account would do.

Good point. Why can't we get a mortgage on a massive S&P purchase?
Live in a home. Dont look at it like a stock.
the other aspect I suppose is what is the cost of rent vs mortgage? when we bought our place the mortgage + fees were actually $200 less each month than rent, so kinda no brain needed in that situation
