Pull all that dead equity out of that house and invest it! There's an idiot who writes for Bloodhound Blog who's suggested the same strategy. Totally clueless. All you need these days to ruin people's lives and fritter away their life savings is a website and some really really stupid ideas. Classic!

I'm not sure but that sounds awful close to a trillion. It wasn't that long ago that our GDP was a trillion. How many 0's is that? This is turning from a nightmare to a comedy. Is no one in charge? 700 billion to the cronies of our fabulous politicians and now a 3oo billion proposition for homeowner buy downs. I’m not sure but that sounds awful close to a trillion.

He was probably telling people the last few years that real estate always goes up. The new mantra "got cash".

When I refied in 2006 he got me a line of credit without my knowledge. I didn't mind because i figured I should get it while I could just in case. This spring he told me to pull the cash and invest it because they'd close that line eventually. They did. However, I never touched the credit and I can't describe how good I feel about that decision. Never been too good with money....but that may have been the best decision I ever made (financially). I'm young so I can't speak to "post war" numbers. This much I know.....When I got my first job out of college (1998) I remember coming home and turning on the news. The big news of the day......."DOW HITS 10000!!!!" for the first time ever. Now I realize 10 years isn't THAT long.....but I'd say it's a decent sized length of time to watch a trend. And your rate of return from 1998-2000.......0%. Not quite sure where he gets the "12% annually on stocks"???? My guy told me the same.
