Re: \"The Ofdabeat hates backpackers special\"

Also, I'm going to be passing through Vientiane in a few weeks. I will be carrying a backpack, but I don't much care for granola, hopefully we can still grab a beer or something.

Re: Buying house, interest only loan the way to go?

[ QUOTE ]
200k * .80% = 160k

160k @ 30yr/7% = $1065/mo

Assume tax and insurance @ 4k/yr or 335/mo

about $1400/mo PITI.
This doesn't include utilites, which you would pay anyway.
