    My best advice: live below your means and stick to your goals. I was approved for a 900k mortgage at 32, but I went with a smaller one instead - $525k. I invested, saved and paid extra on my monthly payments. Four years later, I'm about to pay off my mortgage in a week from today.
    I skipped the fancy cars, clothes, watches and vacations and instead opted to invest in my future. Now, at 36, I'm ready to significantly boost my investments and start enjoying life a bit more.

    Don't pay property taxes on your paid off home and see how quickly Uncle Sam takes it away from you.

      very true, although a property tax payment (spread out monthly) is way less than a mortgage, so less risk

    I really appreciate the recognition that everyone is different and not trying to force a particular 'solution' on us. I agree that for some (me) there is a huge value in knowing that you are closer to being fully paid off. I know one person with at least 5 rental properties here in London (so at least a million pounds but probably a few times that) and large, interest-only mortgages. I don't think that I'd be able to sleep with the risk and complexity that involves.
    The video (and the should you pay it off in the first place video) still gave even risk-adverse me some insight into how I should go forward with my finances - so thank you!

    You really went in on the Dave Ramsey train. I did as well for a while and he helped me get through my student loans. I was debt free before getting married. While paying early would be nice, it isn’t really in the cards for us right now.

    The more lump sum you put, the less effective. But there's no price tag in peace of mind. I apply prepayments on principal balance no matter what.

      Well that is if you want to lower your monthly payment after a lump sum payment, doesn't shorten your term. But yeah could be a useful tool if you want a lower monthly payment

    No Mention of Velocity Banking ???
    - taking a chunk of the mortgage use a CC balance transfer offer/check for 3% up front for 18 months.....your extra cash per month over 18 months could be a lump sum today....so your $100 per month you said....$1800 lump sum + $54 (3%) = $1854...this moves your amortized payment into the future TODAY now next year. then you pay off the 1854 balance to your CC company with only $54 added for interest and remember is 18 months so it's less than 3%APR when you are paying 4.5%AMORTIZED interest...or many people are paying higher interest

      @@Method2DaMadness I don't understand what you are calling bs? This is one method of paying down loans including a mortgage....I have personally used it on student loans, cars, and my own mortgage..... So, I don't understand on what you are calling bs... With this method, you move further down the amortization schedule in time.... The payment balance b/t principle and interest changes..... There is an instant increase in the amount paid to principle instead of interest.....

    No need to pay off your mortgage unless you are max funding all retirement accounts and then some and have a low interest rate. Hate when ppl advise doing this.

      He did say at the beginning that it usually doesn't make sense mathematically. But life is more than math. No risk of forclosure, greater monthly cash flow, and simplifying your life are all good reasons to pay off a mortgage early.
