2bntv - a financial advisor once told us that when doing our analysis we should consider the amount and source[s] of our retirement income as well as our anticipated mthly income vs outgo. the point being that sometimes the leverage to be gained from having a mortgage as a deduction for income tax purposes is more beneficial than retiring with no debt. it's another complication of retirement anticipation! just sayin'.
