We talk about The Love of Money. Our guest is Ahyh, founder of The Church of Yahweh. It is dedicated to presenting the clearest explanations it can about the mysteries and essence of the universe, God, and ourselves.
We explore:
1) How do we separate the the love of money from money?
2) If the love of money is the root of all evil. Could we translate that to “The love of material things (matter) is the root of all evil?
3) Is how I handle money a reflection of my self image?
4) Ahyh’s thoughts on “Money can’t buy happiness but it can sure make misery more enjoyable.”
You can find Ahyh at:

You’re borrowing the purchase price and you’re borrowing the interest paid. At the same time. Two loans, not one. Look at your amortization schedule. A – Mort – ization – Mort means death.
What is interest?
Rent for the use of the bank’s money.
They didn’t have it to lend anyway. You created it when you signed the promissory note.
$100k loan @ 4% interest for 30 years. You pay back $100k.
And you pay back $72k interest or rent for the use of the banks money.
$72K divided by $100k = 72% interest, not 4% as you’ve been lead to believe.
You don’t question it because the monthly payment fits into your comfort zone.
So you borrow $100k and payback $172K. You have to earn $172k plus (for example) your 25% tax bracket. You have to earn $172k plus $43k to payback the loan. That’s you earning $215k to pay back a $100k loan.
