My wife and I still have some space under our 2006 roth contributions. I'm pretty timid about even going into our emergency fund in order to finish off the contributions, so I'm pretty sure I would never borrow to fund them. I'm just not much for the risk. I can see the strategy paying off, but there is also a risk that something will happen and then, as you point out, you've lost any of the benefits )and then some?). As with everything in investing, it is all about risk/reward. That’s an interesting idea. My wife and I still have some space under our 2006 roth contributions.
