I saw that 36% mish. Greed knows no boundaries. I wonder if any of these people have ever thought about paying just one house off so they can live cheap if they have to. I have not paid mine off but getting closer. I am close to mid 50's so will need to pay it off soon.

The 4.4-4.45% area has served as MAJOR support for some time now.
