Incredible situation.

Alex W says we have 14 years remaining on our 15-year mortgage.
podcast-host
It's $120,000 and the interest rate is 6%.
podcast-host
So my question is: should we prioritize paying off this mortgage?
podcast-host
Increase contributions to our 450.
podcast-host
fifty seven B or maybe do something else.
podcast-host
Love the show.
podcast-host
Thank you so much for all your advice.

Robert, six percent it's it's on that cusp where, you know, adjusted for inflation, the stock market does about seven and a half or eight percent a year.
podcast-host
Six percent's kind of close.
podcast-host
The thirty year yields at five and a half percent right now.
podcast-host
What's your take?
podcast-host
Yeah, with 173,000 already in the Roth IRA, they got a hundred thousand in the four fifty-seven B, a quarter million in this taxable brokerage account.
podcast-host
I would lean toward increasing that four fifty-seven B versus maybe putting more money in their brokerage account, the bridge account.

podcast-host
But you also want
podcast-host
Make sure that you have enough money in an accessible, taxable brokerage account that when you're ready to retire early or you know, maybe take that leap of faith where you don't want to work full-time, you want to go part-time and be, you know, financially independent.
podcast-host
An awesome episode we just had here on the show, right?
podcast-host
What does it mean to actually be financially free?
podcast-host
You gotta have that accessible money.
