  • Don't trust this guy. Paying off your mortgage as fast as you can is the right thing to do. It is solid, GUARANTEED wealth growth (not paying as much interest on your income), and leaves you owing less and possibly paying off your home before you may run into economic hardship. Then if the SHTF you can (if you REALLY HAVE TO) refinance a small affordable loan, or bask in the glory of your new minimum wage job as your home is payed for.

  • It's not how much your monthly payments are that's of prime importance, it's how much of that payment is principle and how much is interest. Your tax advantage is only a deduction on the interest portion of the payment. And it's only a deduction, it's not a total write-off. You are servicing that debt for an extra 15 years.

    Look at alexremix's response to get some idea of what the numbers look like.

  • Why is this video entitled Pay off Mortgage Early, when you're recommending that people go for the longer amoritization?

  • Bullshit!

  • 150000 at 6%

    30 years:

    Total paid $323,754.89

    Interest paid = 173,754!! (and you are 30 years older!!!!)

    15 years:

    Total paid $213,513.47

    Interest paid = 63,513 and you have 15 years to enjoy your paid off house..

    Simple!!!!! you choose....

  • I agree! This guy doesn't seem to understand the concept of paying all that interest with very little tax benefit. He's also assuming someone is in the 25% tax bracket. What if they are in the 15% bracket? The title of this video is a bit misleading as well.

  • Meanwhile, you have paid over $350,000 for a $150,000 home at the end of 30 years with very little tax write-off toward the end of the loan.

    Basically someone who can't do math.
