JQP, i did a 30 year fixed and i'm taking out lots of cash. my only concern is keeping the money safe form the coming bank and brokerage closures before i can buy an upgrade home for ~$150k with interest rates in the 15% range.

of course, i'll be paying 4.75% cash for it (if i can keep it from being stolen by "change you can believe in." i'll rent my current home and try to ride out the wave of austerity.

i think another 75% haircut from current levels is doable once rates go up.

ps - wells fargo still showing 4.75% for a 30 year fixed rate.
