@thereal_kiyosaki: Most people don't realize what they actually bought. You didn't buy a house. You bought a thirty-year LIABILITY... with a monthly payment attached to it. Think about it. Miss six payments. Just six. Who moves in? Not you. The bank. The bank never left. You've been renting from them the whole time... just with extra steps. They call it the American Dream. I call it the American Payment Plan. That's the difference between an ASSET and a LIABILITY. One puts money in your pocket. The other one just... takes.
