It is April 2008 and you have a miraculous mortgage tied directly to the fed rate.
Your monthly mortgage payment is $ 1000 a month ( @ 2% )
It is election year , and in October , the mortgage drops to $750
Later that month , it looks like Obama is going to be elected . The mortgage drops to $500
Obama IS elected . Just before Christmas the mortgage drops to $ 125 a month ( 0.25% ) . You go wild on presents that year !
2009 – Obama is now the President . The mortgage stays at $ 125 a month
2010 same thing 0.25% trade the Honda Civic for an Accord
