Um, again, perhaps you are speaking for yourself.
"pretend your income is a million. is it easier to free yourself of a mortgage debt by paying cash for that house you can afford to do that with or just following a conventional mortgage guideline,placing 20% down and sticking yourself with some heft,incredibly expensive mortgage paymetn eveyr month?

Hypothetically, if ones income is $1,000,000 per year, one has the choice to live just about anywhere in the US (assuming their income follows them).
Hypothetically, if one has the choice to pay cash for a house or to invest the money elsewhere and get a loan for the house- what one does depends on the person. The US government has set tax incentives for the loan option. So one can, hypothetically,invest ones money elsewhere and pay monthly home loanpayment - and still come out ahead.
