Picture-in-picture video comes to Firefox for Windows: Select the blue icon from the right edge of a video to pop open a floating window so you can keep watching while working in other tabs. Learn how the feature works.

The point that you don't pay the total back at the end resonated with me. I agree holding the money has time value

That last bit made sense to me. I still think it's expensive and the banks have too much power. But you make a good point

I conclude that they should just work out the total repayable and be honest and say this is a 70% mortgage. not claim it's 2% but just keep re applying that 2% every month or week or day as they see fit.

I didn't say interest on a loan was a scam I think compound interest on mortgages is. A fixed price interest would make sense like you borrow £100 , you pay back £110. 10% interest. But my understanding on a compound interest mortgage

Bank didn't force me. Society has made it virtually impossible for me to own a property without one. Which seems unfair when a lot of people got their property 35 years before I was born for the equivelant of 2 years salary.

Just seems like a massive scam thats become the norm. You're paying off interest on the first month, as if you've already had the money for 20 years. They take liberties from day one.

compound interest is where the bank say's its 3.5% interest but if you do the math you're paying 180% for a house. I don't have any idea how that became acceptable/the norm.

I appreciate you calling it out it bothers me too. The way I see it people have enough problems having say cancer or HIV, without those terms becoming a popular adjective for belittling

I understand why using an anchor tag is not always technically correct, but I don't see how wrapping something like an image in a button is the right thing to do, for an onclick event.
