How much interest can I really save?

On a typical 30-year mortgage, even an extra $100 per month can save tens of thousands in interest and cut several years off your term.

Is it better to pay off mortgage early or invest?

It depends on your interest rate. If your mortgage rate is lower than potential investment returns, investing might be better. However, paying off debt provides a guaranteed 'return'.
