What specific question do you have or what issues are of concern to you?

With €50,000 cash in savings, I am now considering diverting my monthly saving amount of €2k to mortgage from this month, giving a monthly overpayment of €3500 – is this the right thing to do?

The last of my shares with my previous company will mature in March of 2025 – I am considering selling these to pay into the mortgage in March – with the overpayment I could be finished mortgage in late 2025? Is this the right thing to do or should I continue to build cash and invest this?
