re: #105 Killgore Trout

Maybe. I’ve had evidence just today that may indicate otherwise.

We decided to refi the house to take advantage of those five percent 30 fixed mortgages advertised. Now understand, I no longer have any verifiable income, and the wife can only show a little over $30K/yr. income.

The company called several times asking me for some type of income verification, until I finally just told them, “Look, my credit rating is much better than your companies rating, I have a 40 year history without so much as a late payment anywhere, and frankly I’d just as soon let one of the local banks have this business as you guys. Not to mention, even with the much talked of decline in real estate values, this place will sell for about three times what I’m trying to borrow.”

They called this morning to tell me that the paperwork should arrive early next week. Have our signatures notorized and return.
