| Your banker and your smart brother-in-law have told you, "make bi-weekly payments and save thousands in mortgage interest!" So, weekly payments should save even more? How about daily payments? Are the banks not allowing daily payments because they would never make money on a mortgage?The moral of the following story: it is not how many times you pay, it is how much you pay that reduces your mortgage balance. This is the usual example you are shown how bi-weekly payments "save lots of money:"Your mortgage starts at $300,000. It has a new 35 year amortization. |

And few of us stop to consider the full potential of the closets we do have -- tiny as they may be. |
