Most people think deciding to invest vs paying off mortgage early is a mathematical decision.
It isn’t. It’s a psychological one.
It’s the feeling of being completely debt free that drives many to make the ‘wrong’ decision based on the theory.
@HughInvests Yes rent is more ‘throwing money away’ than owning is. How much value does the average house price go up by over those 25 years? Inflation makes debt easier but rent higher. That’s the difference
@BeeMoneySavvy Congrats! Those I know who have gone down to 4 days say it’s life changing. So much more freedom and flexibility (travel etc) with the 3 day weekend
