My house is nearly paid for
I had about 3 years left
However, after the death of my father I decided to totally pass on what I was doing as a recruitment manager chasing big bucks and readjust
I now earn nowhere near as much...
However - I asked the bank to stretch the big I owed them out (at a v v good rate)
I now pay peanuts and house will be paid for regardless when I’m 60
I overpay what I want when I want, but as I’m on a much lower wage, I still have a life
In fact I have a much better life
Less stress
Loads of actual disposable too - it’s bizarre
I have no children - so no idea why I was killing myself to pay if off earlier - it’s great now
