I made a video a couple weeks ago talking about how we are trying to pay down our mortgage as quick as possible and we put like a ton of money towards the principal to try and pay it down quicker and I said how much of a difference that has made. It's shaved years off our loan. And I got a lot of good comments and suggestions. And one of those suggestions was to pay our mortgage, um, in half. So like every two weeks pay some of it and still do our extra payments too. So I went into the Chase My Home account and I did the calculator to see like how much of a difference it would actually make. And I'm gonna put it on screen here, but if we did that, it would actually cut off 41 months from our mortgage. So we decided that we're gonna start doing that this month. We're gonna split our mortgage in half and pay half and still do our extra payments too. So right now, just cutting down the mortgage in half, like paying it in half every two weeks, that'll save us 41 months. And then if we continue to pay $2,000, I think that'll shave off like 10 years, however many months that is. Um, so we're still on track to pay it off super, super early, but we're gonna continue to try and input any additional principal that we can to try and pay it off within the next five to 10 years. It's probably not gonna be five years, but that's what I wanted it to be. Um, so I don't have my July monthly payments update yet because we have not made our monthly payments. But I will come on soon. So I'll let you know also next month, um, how much the every two week payments has helped us because that should start making our principal on our normal mortgage payments go up. So
