Cash flow is good. But if you keep the investments, when your mortgage is eventually paid off, you get the cash flow, plus the investment, which could be in the hundreds of thousands.

You could also hedge your bets, and keep the investment to the point the dividends pay for the mortgage, and use the dividends to pay the remaining mortgage.
