Today we're asking a big one: ”Dad, what is a mortgage?”
From what it *actually* means to ”own” a home, to how the bank fits into the picture, to what happens if you stop paying (hint: it's not just losing your house — it's losing your down payment, too 😬), this is a must-watch for anyone thinking about buying property or just trying to get ahead on financial 'adulting.'
📌 Topics we cover:
* What a mortgage *really* is (not just a fancy word for “loan”)
* How collateral works in real estate
* What foreclosure actually means
* How down payments + principal payments = your equity
* Why even homeowners don’t technically “own” their homes yet
👇 Like what you heard? Like, comment, and subscribe — and don’t forget to **keep asking Dad**. He might just surprise you.
