                  I hope they put it up by 5%. That's an extra 50k a year to me in interest payments.

                    Carney! Carney! Carney!


                    Go Carney!


                    I knew that useless, overpaid, Canadian chunt would pay dividends in the end.


                    Looks like these may still be worth something at least.

                      I'd love that, but they won't. An interest rate of 5- 6% is still low in historical terms.
                      But, the economy would collapse like a deck of cards.
                      Just goes to show how our so-called "prosperity" is just smoke and mirrors held together by the quick heroin fix of free money.
