$100k house
Oh, you sweet summer child…
Also, please come back when you understand opportunity cost. I will GLADLY pay anyone a 3% rate to front any amount of money I already have.
No shit…lol they have no clue how interest works
Oh is my math wrong?
Payment = rate*(loan amount)/(1-(1+rate)^(-number of payments))
Rate =.03/12 = 0.0025
Payment = 0.0025*100000/(1-1.0025^(-360)) Payment = $421.60
Therefore, $151776 will be paid in total, or $51776 in interest.
I used that number for simplicity’s sake since so… so many of you have a hard time putting large numbers into understandable chunks.
I do understand opportunity cost. My gripe is applying it to shelter to begin with. The whole notion of using shelter as a means for financial gain is absurd. That’s the reason 2008 happened and why housing is unobtainable now.
I’m glad you have $100k on hand. Most don’t.
