I guess I'm one of the crazy in debt Canadians. I still have around $330k left on my mortgage. If I keep up my payments and don't make any principal payments I will be 46 before I am mortgage free.
I think I am pretty comfortable with that though. I don't have any consumer debt, and I don't feel the need to pay down my mortgage as aggressively as possible. I'd like to buy a franchise or side business in the next couple of years and for that I will need liquid assets more then equity.
