Default Re: Mortgage vs. Retirement savings

I think I'd split the extra money between retirement and mortgage. either split evenly, or all to mortgage one month, all to retirement the next. that way, both bases are covered...you might not have the house fully paid off by retirement, but it will be close, and you'll have money waiting for you.

edited to add: this is, of course, assuming you have a hefty emergency fund already set up.
