Personal Finance Canada

Recently, with my wife, we were discussing if we should sell off all of our investments to completely pay off the mortgage at the end of our current term, or keep the investments and continue paying the mortgage every month. We decided to go with the later as if we were ever to be short, we could easily either sell our investments or borrow using them as collateral to make up for the shortfall. We aren't able to see which option would be the most beneficial from a financial standpoint, as this would require knowing the future, so we decided to stay with what looked like the most flexible solution.
