My Credit Card Company Wants to Give Me a Home Loan Refinance [Yielding Wealth | Personal Finance]

Translate Into:

Yesterday I got an interesting offer in the mail. My credit card company wants to give me a home loan refinance!

Because you have shown financial responsibility, we are sending you this special offer. Refinance to a low rate of 6.28%!

The offer goes on, of course, to expound on the things I could do. Save money on interest! Take some cash out to go on vacation! Take cash out to improve my home! Take some cash out to pay off my credit cards!

Unfortunately for my credit card company, I pay off my credit card balances. I have a special fund that the family puts money in for vacation, and we’ve already saved up almost enough to have our yard put in. And the current (fixed) interest rate on our home mortgage loan is below 6%.

So, what do I need this home loan refinance for? Right. I don’t. Because, for the most part, I try to show financial responsibility.
