Reports out of the UK and India say that they are experiencing higher than expected rates of Inflation and they expect them to continue to move higher, but not just in their countries... around the world as well. Bonds (where Mortgage Backed Securities(MBS's) are traded) and Inflation are mortal enemies. If Bonds were Superman, Inflation would be Kryptonite. If Inflation does tick higher, so too will your Home Loan Interest Rates! Couple this news with the fact that the governments plan to purchase MBS's to artificially keep home loan notes low, will expire this March! The time to Purchase or Refinance is now! Get ahead of the inevitable increase in interest rates.

Time to Move! (Litterally and Figuratively)

I have read this quote to many people and each time, they request that I send it to them.

So, some of you requested this, and others haven't, but I figured it was worth sharing and won't take up too much of your time to read. J

I found this in a magazine article about Rory Sabbatini and it is his quote as he was talking about the pressure on next day's tournament.

Yet, after reading it, I thought it could apply to much more than just the game of golf, more so like the game of life...

"It's a constant battle. Every shot takes every ounce of willpower I've got -to factor in the wind, the lie, the slope of the landing. Which side of the target is safer to miss on? Where do I stand in the tournament?

The temptation is to give in and trust it to luck. Just hit and see what happens.

But you can't do that.

Not ever.

Because once you lick the lollipop of mediocrity, you'll suck forever."
