Where do I sign up????? Here I've been working my ass off for over 30 years. <BR/><BR/>I bought my first house in 1976 and paid on it for a while. Then took the equity in that house and purchased some property in Hereford Zone and built a house on it in 1986 and moved in in 1987. We've refinanced the house I don't know how many times over the years as the interest rates changed. When we moved in the rates were over 12%. <BR/><BR/>We had the same experience as Jughead with the banks telling us we could afford to borrow $500,000. We laughed at them. <BR/><BR/>Now 21 years later we have 5 more years and the house will be paid for. Unless something comes up and we have to refinance again. MAybe I should just default and get my $750,000 from the government and buy a bigger house clear and free.<BR/> <BR/>I wonder how many people getting this bail out are illegal immigrants?Slammermikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01510659705682492807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161681196766725842.post-70622039095720193042008-07-24T16:17:00.000-04:002008-07-24T16:17:00.000-04:00Don't get me started on the hermit part.

BTW, you'll need to expand your garden and plant some money trees because I cannot imagine anything but the taxes on the 'middle class' going up.
