My mortgage comes up for renewal in the next 6 months and I’ll be going from 1.5% fixed to roughly 6% fixed, which will be an extra £800 a month.

Paying an extra £100 - £200 a month on food because of higher inflation sounds much more attractive to me than the extra £800 mortgage.

What is my bird brain missing?
