The article that I was refering to compared a $100,000 mortgage for current rates of 12.75 for the 30 and 12.25 for the 15. The payments on the 30 would be $1087 and the 15 would be $1217. The $130 difference would save you $172,260 (Before taxes) if you took the 15. I figured that a 12.75% loan for $100,000 paid off at $1217 a month would take 16.27 years for a difference of $18600.(before tax) John Eaton !hplabs!hp-pcd!john
