I owe 21k on my mortgage. Been paying extra on principal since moving in in 2002. When mortgage is payed off I will continue to work 6 days a week as that’s all I know.
I will probably just sit and let the stress of the past 20 years melt away knowing I’ve done my personal best to raise my tiny piece of this world ( wife and 2 kids).
As I came from less than nothing for a family my sense of accomplishment will far outweigh the risks I could of taken to live a more rich existence.
