Note that I said that I knew we wouldn’t be paying it until I was 70 - I would pay off what remained at 65 in one lump sum. Extending the term of the loan by 5 yrs was simply a way of very significantly reducing our monthly payments so that we could afford putting our children through uni.Cant imagine paying off a mortgage until the age of 70 ? I feel for you. I suppose I'm lucky, I'm not even 30 and dont have a mortgage to pay
As it happens we were able to pay off our mortgage in full a couple of years back (events). But certainly, that we extended our mortgage term as we did, knowing what we knew, also enabled me to keep club membership.
