Thanks
There is no question that an ARM is right for me
Furtermore I am interest only.
My wife just lost her job and our payment drops by 2/3
Even IF rates are hiked by 2 full points (extremely doubtful IMO) I will still only be back at the fixed rate.

Our house is 2/3 paid off roughly and I think I am doing this for the right reasons as opposed to a stretching the budget reason.

She had a couple interviews and if she finds something we will pay what we used to pay (probably after we soak away in MM fund 4-6 months worth of payments). Just setting aside the extra over wht we were paying, we can save 6 months worth of house payments in 2 months.

Of course that is at 3%. I Really doubt we see much beyond 4.5 IF we even get that far.
