Longnshort, So in your household budget, you don't take into acct your interest payments on your mortgage interest?

Don't forget borrowing the money in your retirement account and counting that as part of your "income."

Technically, that'd be the case.

>How many times have you defaulted on your home loan?

Have you ever run a business? Do you know the difference between a cash flow statement and a balance sheet?

Dude, what would you prefer? A surplus before interest payments or a deficit before interest payments? Clinton had a surplus before interest; Bush has a deficit before interest. Do you know which is better for us and the country?

Dang! No wonder Bush got re elected!

Stupid is as stupid does!
