    I think 1000 or 2000 for me. I know it’s optimal to put it on my mortgage but that’s an amount I would use the excuse of “having to spend it” to spend it on myself. 20k in cleared debt is like 1.4k yearly expense reduced which really moves the needle. If you pay off 1k a month you’re effectively increasing the payoff rate by 12%.
