Suppose there is a home that is available now that the person really wants, but they do not have the necessary money immediately, but they are certain they will have the money in 3 months? Why would it be foolish to use a loan from a 401(k) to be able to buy the home they want now instead of waiting 3 months and hoping a home they like as much becomes available?
What if this person lost their job? What if their business just up and closed one evening? What happens then? I don't consider anything a certainty. Just me, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
