Renting from the banks. That is the future. Back to interest only, 100 year terms. You buy a house, rent it from the bank and when you die, your family sell it and pay off the mortgage.

As long as prices go up forever, this is great.

To be fair for most of the muppets being able to tie your shoe laces yourself counts as genius.

Depends which average you're working with

Well I have an IOM and don't explicitly set aside the amount we would be paying off, but the mortgage is small so I know it's easily covered - we just invest as we area able each year.

I got a IOM free when I got married. It's now IOM with savings plan in place.

49% are of below average intelligence.

I wonder what % of that 49% are the ones who have interest only mortgages without a low risk savings plan to cover.
