Just take a bit of time to think about why literally everybody is saying it's a worse idea to hold your investment than pay off your debt.

Just spend some time thinking why everybody is telling you that.

Wait so you have literally no emergency fund aside from money in a risky investment? That’s even worse. Take that money out. Put a reasonable amount in a real emergency fund. Then use the rest to pay down your credit card debt.

That just makes it even worse. To have your entire emergency fund sitting in some investment.
