Hey budget board,
Someone talk numbers to me. DH and I are early 60's. We have steady jobs-he's a teacher who will get a pension, and I have higher paying work. After a lot of effort over the years we have no debt except our home. We'd like to retire at 65/67 but really want to have out home paid off. I'm committed to that but worry about my retirement. I was a SAH Mom for many years where I did not build any retirement for myself. Are we wiser to bump that up at this late date, or continue to pay. more on the house and relieve ourselves of that burden before retirement? Thoughts?
