    Franco, pack in the permie job and get a contract. You won't need a mortgage then.

      Best meaning what exactly? Most flexible, lowest standard rate, best deal (e.g. capped, discounted) or what?

        Always good to have a mixture of own and borrowed capital. Otherwise, you lose on the potential revenues. Only someone with small business acumen like Milan would only count on his own patrimony.

        I am a a contractor in a long-term contract, pls. *

        *Although it makes you feel strange that someone is rating you. I guess you are supposed to be better to rate someone. Therefore, we should have contractors rating permies but that would never happen.

          Each to his own, Franco, but I am very content to have no mortgage and no debt beyond whatever Mrs Lucifer has spent on her cards this month, and feel no real need to acquire any borrowed capital.
