Don't pay off debt that is lower interest than inflation. You are actually making money on your debt if inflation rate is higher, by not paying it off.

Real estate. You don't suffer as much market craziness as you do in stocks.
Simplistically**, if RE purchased w/ a 10% down payment drops 5% in value (which happens with some frequency), then ROI is a negative 50%. Juxtapose that probability with the markets dropping 50%.
**Not factoring variables of rental income vs overhead/financing costs, or realtor/transactional fees.
