And/or the difference between working for another 20 years while paying the mortgage, or stacking your extra cash and retiring in 10.

  I'm not sure I understand your meaning. Are you saying that buying a house delays retirement? I'm not sure that is really true. Mortgage payments gets you equity on your home, which goes a long way in retirement. Rent payments disappear, and you will have to continue to pay rent when retired.

    They're saying if you make more then there's potential to save more and retire early.

      Right, this, sorry if it wasn't clear. It all depends on how much extra you have. I mean, if 200k is just making ends meet, 400k means infinitely larger savings!
