Do not do a Brazil with your mortgage!! You stop paying for 3 months become a bailout case. In California? Uhm, looks like someone will come to the rescue. Your record as a bad debtor will stick with you. You will be paying the extra price of being a defaulters for quite a long time. Now if you pay correctly, you would be always flashing your unblemished credit record. Next time you can say: "Throught the subprime melee my credit was always scratch free. I have decoupled from that mess. Now I want to pay the least interest."
