yes.

It’s more tax-efficient.

You can use a personal asset line of credit (secured by stocks for example) to finance certain purchases.

You avoid paying capital gains on the sale of assets and if you never sell, at death, your heirs will get a step-up in the basis.

It obviously comes with some risks, like a margin call and typically they’re structured with a floating interest rate
