    We hope to be done in 3.5 more years. DH will be 60 and I'll be 45 so we want to go into semi retirement, working on small real estate investment projects and traveling. Hopefully, we will be able to save more for our nest egg once the mortgage is gone too and just fix up the house the way we like it with furniture, upgraded finishes, decor etc. 
    Mortgage start date Dec 2015 - $64,655.00
    Mortgage end date Dec 2045 - NOT!!!!
    Mortgage balance  - $4600.00
    Business Savings $43,310/100k
    Hope to be mortgage-free by end of 2023

    Bargainhunter- I was about to say that sounds rather idyllic... til you mentioned the pigs :wink: 

    Best of luck on the journey, surfing sounds like an ace way to spend your free time. And YY to the campervan, I would love one of those. One day.....

    Leigh - that sounds great, and a bonus if you can make an income from real estate. Best of luck, not long to go now.
