Our management has FINALLY realised that this is the best time to train for the next upturn. It has only taken 20 years......still tuff to do without the cash flow that makes the bean counters feel good.

nspolar, as a matter of fact I was thinking myself of refinancing with an ARM. My thinking was if rates stay low I'm fine, if rates go up, so we have inflation, I'm fine as well because I'd be able to pay off mortgage using gains from my gold stocks. Do you think there is a flaw in my logic?

EDIT: Were you able to get no cost refi?
