<prompt> Human: 250K left on mortgage. 4 more years. House bought at 510K now worth 1.6M. Vancouver. Probably will sell house in 5-10 years.However, my income for various reasons has dropped and now essentially not much is left over each month. Wife is convinced that paying off the mortgage is primary. Should I reduce my mortgage payments as in the end it wont matter if I decide to sell the house sooner?  <response>: Assuming you have a decent interest rate, Id pay the minimum and put your money into more liquid investments.
