      and your kids will be in debt.

      If mortgages were capped to 20 years, the prices of houses would plummet.

        No, it’s just some exaggeration to make it even more ridiculous. As if 50 years isn’t enough.

        What’s really awful is when you see how little the payment lowers between a 30yr and 50yr mortgage with current rates. It’s not nearly as big a difference as you’d think.
