Karl's Mortgage Calculator
I plugged in a $500K house, 10% down($450K loan), 30yr fixed, at 5%.
Total payments would be $870K on that $450K loan.
Almost 100% interest!!!!!!!!!
Guido would be proud.

This is why any language in a re-fi should stipulate extra payments
go to principle only, and a re-calculation of the loan should be available at least yearly.
