Too embarassed to tell anyone I know IRL, but am excited for my new future. Been throwing alot of money with small things. PC, alcohol, movies (and im ashamed to say, funko pops). Recently i took the plunge and cut out alcohol in an attempt to get my life together, and i feel like i have a whole new start.

Is it giving you a higher return than you pay in interest? Personally I'd pay off the mortgage.

Spy has been yielding double digit returns for years... That's definitely bigger than most mortgages in the US.

Then you should get rid of your mortgage payments and put it all in that.

Huh? If my rate of return > mortgage rate it makes more sense to be leveraged. If my mortgage rate was 10% I'd be paying off my mortgage.
