I just listened to the best/worst host on Dave Ramsey's podcast.
Married couple, under 30 years old. Household income of $145,000. They came on the show to celebrate paying off their $450,000 house in Georgia. They said they started paying it off 5 years ago, which means they had a mortgage with a low interest rate (probably <3%) and started paying aggressively just as interest rates were beginning to rise. Dave Ramsey loved it, and he started giving a talk about how people who are 26 years old and say they can't buy a house should be inspired by this couple. Haha.
