Canadian Wealth Secrets The Million Dollar Mistake Most Canadians Are Making [Secret Sauce Ep19]
Are you making the million-dollar mistake of paying off your mortgage too soon, missing out on greater wealth opportunities?
In this episode, Kyle Pearce reveals a common financial misstep that many homeowners make: paying off their mortgage too aggressively. While it may seem like the smart choice to get rid of debt quickly, you could be locking away valuable funds in your home that could otherwise be used to grow your wealth.
Instead of simply focusing on reducing interest payments, Kyle explains why keeping a mortgage for longer and reinvesting your extra cash could lead to much greater financial freedom.
This strategy is especially crucial in today’s economic climate, where inflation and interest rates fluctuate unpredictably. Whether you're preparing for retirement or looking to build long-term financial security, this episode breaks down how you can leverage your mortgage as a tool for growing your wealth, rather than seeing it as a burden to eliminate.

- Learn how stretching your mortgage term can give you greater liquidity and financial flexibility.
- Discover how to invest extra cash instead of paying off your mortgage faster, boosting your net worth in the long run.
- Understand why liquid assets are more valuable than home equity when it comes to long-term financial planning.
