You've alluded that you are retired and apparently making this those payments from investment earnings. But I'm curious about the wisdom of being in this situation while working to make the payment. I'm 53 with roughly 23 years on my current 30 year mortgage, and I view it as having to work until age 76 if I want to keep the current house beyond retirement.


I'm 59 years old this summer (August) and have 23 years left on a 30 year mortgage.... and I retired when I was 41....

The key is to keep your WIFE working 'til she's old and grey...

So I don't understand your question.
