I think if anyone wants to remortgage a house, they should call a bank, not have a company like CashCall contact them.

And you are right. The rates are insane indeed.

That is very expensive money!
Strange how the less able you are to pay the more the banks charge you!
It's like they want you to fail!

We jacked up the people with messed up credit's interest rates, and then when they were late, they pay MORE in interest AND late fees, bounced check fees, repo fees, etc.... It's insane. But then again, why would you buy a Lexus at 20% interest. Dumas.

But the only true answer to helping America is to start introducing some real financial education in our school ciriculuums; and weed out some non-essential ones. And the sooner we start educating ourselves in money and credit; many of these problems can be reduced on the individual's end. |

I do not feel sorry for all those dopes who bought above their means. |

Don't forget most of the midwest states are heavily subsidised by taxes from the big states. We pay to repair the damage from the tornadoes, floods, snow, ice and hurricanes that wipe out your redneck mansions every year.
