   RW> MH> the window on rent.   
      
   RW>Some people don't believe that because the money paid in rent is a cost   
   RW>of living, no matter where that is. I had a friend who rented and put what   
   RW>he saved in loan interest into a money market fund. He died a rich man and   
   RW>someone else rented his apartment the following month.   
      
   TOTALLY WRONG Thinking.   
   I just cranked a few figures from younger years in the loan   
   calcualtor and for a $95,000 Home Laoan with a $700 per month payment   
   one would have only saved $93780 in Interest. THAT IS FAR from Rich.   
   AND after the $700 stops that part of what you called "cost of living"   
   drops dramaticly as only a much smaller amount of property taxes remains   
      
   For those that can swing the payments NOT buying a house is Terminally   
   STUPID   
      
   I canot express how great it feels to only be paying the property Taxes   
   to put a roof over my head.
