So yes ... lower interest rates helps now but if you don't plan your finance with higher rates in mind you will pretty much be fucked the day it starts to climb again ...
Actually interest rates are rising without the economy recovering. 9.4% unemployment, oil over $70/bar, taxes going up...whatever recovery we may have will definitely be stifled by these.
