Fair question! Two reasons:
I'm not the picture of fiscal responsibility. Be much more comfortable with a predictable income, especially since I'll be too old to work.
Selling the house would be a last resort for two reasons. My wife is foreign and would be lost without me. I want to know she will always have a roof to sleep under, no matter what. Two, I really want to be able to leave it to my children, give them a jump in life when we're both gone.
