Default Re: Mortgage vs. Retirement savings

Strictly financially speaking, it depends on what your mortgage rate is and what you think you can earn in interest in your retirement account. If you think you can earn more in the retirement account than you are currently paying in interest on your mortgage, then retirement is the way to go. If you don't think you can earn more investing, then paying off the mortgage is the smart thing to do.
