  • Those who understand interest collect it. Those who don’t, pay it. (He pays a fortune in interest!)
  • Paying off your mortgage will save a ton.
  • You don’t have to wait to pay off your whole mortgage. You can make prepayments along the way.
  • Making a prepayment can save you a lot of money.
  • The earlier you make a prepayment, the more you will save.
