Come and discuss anything related to personal finance, directly or indirectly, with other Canadians!
Can you feel affordability flowing?
EDIT : Just for fun, I ran the numbers :
• Loan of $500,000 at 7% over 25 years: monthly payment $3,534, total interest $560,169
• Loan of $500,000 at 7% over 30 years: monthly payment $3,327, total interest $697,545
• Loan of $500,000 at 9% over 40 years: monthly payment $3,857, total interest $1,351,268
I don't even understand the existence of this product...
Madness.
