it is perfectly ok to run the fan 24/7..... However it costs a lot of money to do so unless your system uses a variable speed motor.

I disagree. If it is humid, Running the fan after the AC has shut off adds to the humidity in the house. If its not humid then you can if you want.

When the AC cycles off the condensation on the evaporator coil will evaporate and enter the air ducts instead of running into the drain.
This will result in a higher humidity level in your home than you would get with the fan set to the auto position.
