Nice. Then your choices just exploded! Or buy a Bond eg Kengen that pays 12% with zero taxes...

Pay the loan and you'll start keeping 100% of your income. That's a guarantee and there's a good change that the returns of keeping the 100% are higher than the capital gain or dividend you'll get. Don't gamble with what you don't have.

BBI will solve it

Can't remember the verses but even the Bible is against keeping cash idle. You need to invest wisely though not sure where you get the wisdom. Pray!Pray!Pray!
