You are being paid to take out a large aggressive mortgage

Big players have been getting a smoking deal in the mortgage market lately...

In the current inflationary environment you are being paid to take out a loan.

We have inflation over 5% and variable mortgages that are charging 1.7%...

That is a rate of return of -3.3% for the lender!

That is a positive 3.3% for the borrower!

In a world where interest rates are artificially suppressed, it makes sense to borrow money and that's exactly what the big boys have been doing.

Interest rates have to go up by roughly 5% or inflation has to drop by a similar amount before we start seeing this type of investment no longer make sense.

Bitcoin is another option.

The problem for anyone seeing this now is that the trend is likely to reverse starting about now...
