14 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoWhy don't banks just issue 2 year bonds to borrow home equity at a decent interest rate?
If a bank is having trouble with their asset column, why doesn't a bank just issue 2 year bonds to borrow home equity from property owners at a decent interest rate? In other words, if a property owner has bad credit and does not qualify for a loan, why doesn't a bank just give the property owner a 2 year bond (similar to a cd) at a 2 year cd interest rate and temporarily transfer the property owners equity into the asset column of the bank? The bank would then have additional assets in the asset column (to balance) and the property owner would get an interest rate on their home equity? (The amount borrowed by the bank would be only a fraction of the property owners home equity which would be insured only to 100,000, in agreement during the 2 year period that the homeowner would agree not to sale the property, pay taxes, etc. There could possibly even be an option to have the interest rate on return set to slowly cancel out some of the property owners personal debt. Foreign banks could do this to slow the rate of loss by shifting the time, similar to operation twist, but instead of using treasuries you would create a new bond and "twist" home equity.)
I am very new to banking concepts, does this form of bond already exist?

The symbol of three crosses, could that have something to do with the Holy Grail?

11 AnswersReligion & Spirituality10 years agoQuestion for Atheists (on ethics and systems of order)?
If someone hides evidence from an atheist to gain power over them, even if the atheist is treated well, do you believe an atheist should still strongly question that authority without having the needed evidence (which is hidden) to support a possible argument with that authority? or do you believe it is most ethical for an atheist due to a lack of evidence to only ask basic questions which avoid argument with that authority? or rather, if an atheist is being treated well by that authority, that it is most logical and ethical to not question or argue with that authority?
