Just a bit of fun, but I can see this starting a good discussion
Scenario:
You come in to a windfall of £100k.
Do you pay off the mortgage or not?
Scenario:
- You have 100k left outstanding on your mortgage (for the sake of this discussion ignore any "termination" fees that may be owing at the end of the term)
- Mortgage has 10 years left to run
- Mortgage is (currently) on a fixed term for the next 3 years and payments are (currently) £1,000 per month
You come in to a windfall of £100k.
