Tom Petty Was Right
By Mitch Berg
The waiting is the hardest part.
Waiting on a “conditional approval” for an FHA loan that’d lop about five points off my mortgage.
So if any of you has a hotline to the powers that be – literal or metaphorical – on these things, I’d appreciate a good word. I’ll eat my veggies every night.

I hope you are successful in obtaining money from this government program, Mitch.

Ben Bernanke doesn’t return my e-mails anymore.

Ditto.
That, and getting my tax refund.

5 POINTS! You have 5 points to lop off?
Dude, you really need a new mortgage. FHA quarantees loans, but sadly AC is correct; with that much room in your mortgage, you are the reason we have this program.
Good Luck!

I used a government program called the “Carter Administration” to get my first mortgage at 12%. Glad I’m done with all that.
Good luck Mitch

5 POINTS! You have 5 points to lop off?
If I lopped 5 points off mine, U Suck Bank would be paying me.

What Kerm said. Gee, wouldn’t that be cool. Negative Interest . . . would that mean I wouldn’t have to make payments anymore, the negfative interest would eventually take care of it
