politics @lemmy.world•Why Trump's 50 Year Mortgage Scheme Is an Even Worse Idea Than You Imagined
3·2 months agoA portion of the payment goes to interest and a portion goes to the principal. The first payment is almost all interest and a tiny bit of principal. The last is almost all principal and a tiny bit of interest.
As you reduce the principal you are paying less in interest each payment and more principal.
One way to greatly reduce your loan time is to pay one extra payment each year year having it go all to principal. That can cut 4-6 years of a 30 year mortgage.

Then we saw the body cam of part the interaction. Technically what he said was true but extremely exaggerated. Made us discount everything he said that wasn’t on video.
We ended thinking the defendant was probably guilty but they didn’t prove it so we decided not guilty.

politics @lemmy.world•The GOP expected Democrats to relent on the shutdown by now. That isn't happening.
6·3 months agoManchin was a democrat from a very right wing state. He never hid his views and that he was going to be very right wing democrat.
Fetterman said he was a progressive, ran as a progressive, and went hard right wing when he got in office. Yeah the brain damage changed him but I think he was always a Republican in Democrat clothes.
Maybe they will finally stop with the cranberry sauce recipe.
