Yes a wife and a few kids. Retirement goal is at 55 and I’m well on track for that. I don’t have to put another dollar to my retirement account and it should grow to what I need by 55.

If the dream is to retire at 55, I would keep the money in the market working for you.

If buying a kiddie condo makes sense (college is cheap. A 19 year old covering room and board isnt), I would keep the money in the market (you can pay cash for the condo in the future).

If you truly have a static life (no big plans for the future), go ahead and pay off the mortgage. I was asking about the family because it may be their "calling" which creates the dynamic big purchase ideas which could benefit from a large capital infusion in the future.
