Where should my extra $1,000 go?

Debt, extra mortgage payments or investing? Split your spare monthly cash any way you like and see the 10-, 15- and 25-year net worth of each path side by side — plus a refinance-and-consolidate option.

Other debts
Credit cards, car loans, lines of credit, student loans. Leave the minimum blank and we’ll assume 3% of the balance.

Assumptions
Refinance scenario (optional)

The fine print, honestly. Every path pays your regular mortgage payment and debt minimums; only the extra cash is split. Debts are paid highest-rate first, freed-up payments roll into the next priority (debt → mortgage → investing), and once the mortgage is gone the whole payment is invested. Returns compound monthly at your assumed rate, before tax. These are simplified projections, not financial advice — a conversation covers the tax, risk and timing pieces a model can’t.

Numbers are a starting point. When you want them turned into a plan, start with a conversation. No pressure. No mortgage-speak.
