That’s merely a desire for a more “fair” system or frankly just something that benefits you rather than someone else. The discussion here is about scams and my argument is that mortage is not one.
I asked for an alternative way to finance a house. You either save up yourself or you borrow from someone who has the assets. I don’t see a third option.
Yeah ofcourse it would be nice if my mortage didn’t have interest or had really low one like it did up untill about a year ago. I’m not against that if my bank decides to offer me such option but that’s just fantasy and in no way relevant to the discussion. Ofcourse it would be beneficial to the vast majority of people if the wealthiest ones would settle for less. That’s unfortunelately just not the case.
Hardly. The market still exists, and lenders can still make a profit, just maybe not as much. It’s not rocket science.

You asked for an alternative and I gave you one. You just aren’t happy at the idea that massive lenders can afford to make less.
And of course I’m motivated that it benefits me, and millions of ordinary people, what sort of psychopath wouldn’t be?
Mortgages are not a scam, I’ll give you that. But I’m pretty sure that anyone with a functional moral compass would recognise that usury is immoral.

I totally agree with you. What I want is pie in the sky. Without regulation, nothing will change.
