It's a good strategy if you are disciplined. Personally I did this with mine. Been in my house for 3.5 years, but have paid down the mortgage almost 6 yrs.

The problem is 99.5% of all Americans are not disciplined enough...every month there is a "just in case."

Enjoy the new pad!

We're paying an extra couple hundred a month ourselves. As it stands it will take about 8 years off of the mortgage.
