Thanks. Great video.

Question on your numerical example: 6% of 500000 give me 2500$ per month (500000*6%/12). How do you get 2998$?

Cheers

Hi Thorgal99, Thanks for the comment am glad you like the video. When you make a mortgage payment part of that payment goes to covering the interest that you have caculated below. There is a second component however which goes towards paying back the principal of the loan as well which is where the difference comes from. Because the formula for this is fairly complicated I simply used a free mortgage calculator which you can find by searching that term in google. Best Regards, Dave
