Everyone goes for a fixed rate mtg. This is a misnomer it is a fixed payment loan. A variable rate reduces the monthly payment at adjustment (all things being equal) if you pay in advance. Think about this when buying if you are planing to pay off a new purchase note early. Also over time variable notes are less money on average.

With interest rates lower than ever and the new Fed inflation target of up to 4%, you’re better off not paying down your mortgage faster since you’ll be paying with less valuable dollars in the future. In the meantime, you can invest and get a higher return than the 3% (or less) interest you’re paying on your mortgage.

Here is a question related to baby step 4, 5 and 6: If you're paying into a pension that is mandatory, and it's like, say 10 percent of your income....
