But Jesus, when you look at the details, it’s fucking offensive.
For every pound you borrow, you pay back £2.30
Fuuuuuck. That takes the piss. How does anyone get away with that?
Basically, for a £200,000 mortgage, we get to pay back the princely sum of £440,000. If nothing else, it reinforces my opinion that the financial industry are, in fact, an utter bunch of cunts.
£1 ~ £2.30 then £200,000 ~ £460,000, surely?
Sorry to break my silence only for pedantry 😉
Indeed, could be.
Bugger, now I’m going to have to check that fucking paperwork when I get home again, just to double check.
Still, who ever said that the financial bastards could actually add up? I swear they just think of a number, then double it (ish).
The lower amount will take into account that you pay off the mortgage quicker, so not all the ‘interest’ builds up.
Fuckin’ rip off, so it is.
On the other hand, if you can afford at £200k house..!!!!
