		<description>The only thing with this, is that so many companies are charging an arm and a leg for some very simple calculations of how to use a HELOC with your mortgage to pay down the principal.  The guy you comes out with the software for free with other back end sales potentials will be a millionaire</description>

		<description>"Despite an aggregate level of $10 trillion in home equity around the country, the nation’s homeowners are have gone from feeling bullish to feeling gun-shy."

Yes, homeowners have started looking for ways to downsize their debt.

Fortunately, many homeowners have discovered a way to use a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) as an interest cancellation account to rapidly accelerate their home equity and payoff their mortgage *years* sooner than listed in their mortgage amortization schedule.

A home is not an asset until such time as it has been paid off "free and clear" -- prior to that its just another liability.

Today’s Real Estate market means that folks can no longer count on appreciation to build home equity. Those who realize that they need to pay down their current mortgage debt are looking for alternate ways to aggressively (yet safely) build equity.

And they've discovered a perfect online system to do that; they can focus on their wealth accumulation goals while accelerating their equity simply by using a Home Equity Line of Credit to ‘power’ the Money Merge Account™ financial solutions program.

A typical 30 year loan (of whatever type) can be paid down in 1/3 to 1/2 the time — it's a great way to save *huge* amounts of income by eliminating a mortgage amortization front-end interest load. (On a million-plus dollar home, I've personally seen where the Money Merge Account™ program will save the homeowner $750,000 in interest charges!)

And the best thing – homeowners don’t have to refinance their existing mortgage or, in most cases, make any adjustments to their lifestyle.  

It is unfortunate that most of us were never taught to follow three essential principles: (1) Avoid paying interest, whenever possible, (2) Use other people’s money, whenever possible and (3) Find and use a financial system that will guide you, especially if you have the tendency to go off-track.  The Money Merge Account™ software and the program’s counselors use these principles to keep each homeowner focused on their wealth accumulation goals. 

I’d be happy to provide further details…</description>
