I am so glad I have a fixed rate mortgage. The Finacial post says 5 year mortgage rates have hit just under 9%.
I wonder what everyone's game plans are for riding this out in the US and Europe?

We're just doing a fixed rate refinance and waiting to hear. I'm pulling a LOC from the CIBC as they are really extended into this US mess.
The people on the US forums I'm on seem mainly resigned. Very sad indeed.

Sadly some people just don't know, or weren't paying attention. It sucks, but its true. It has been quite the somber day here today. Hopefully this might motivate a few people to pay off their debts and get their financial house in order.

I remember...
I had a good friend in the States who worked for MLynch, and when the stocks plummeted after 9/11, they had people actually jumping out of windows. (One was a guy she worked with, but there were several others.)
How bad would it really have to be in order to warrant something like that?
