Mortgage rates have surged and stayed high in the UK. For those with mortgages they are probably thinking: Should I bother with investment at all or should I just pay off my mortgage rather than invest? In this video, I examine this question, discuss how to structure the decision and show you which factors you need to consider when making it.
