That would be great if interest rate for 15% can you imagine the money you could make in the bank?

Only does you any good if you:

- have a large amount of savings and no other debt
- Don’t rely on that interest as an income stream - if your for example a pensioner and take the interest to live off of - maintaining the principle and cost of goods is going up 20% - making 15% doesn’t do you a lot of good.

Overall - we have depressed interest on cars/houses as historically those have been “safe” loans for banks to make. Problem is way too many people stretch themselves thin with unsecured loans and when shit goes down - no one ever imagined owners would just walk away and start over.

Now we know that will happen and banks are more cautious building in a layer of protection (higher rate) to ensure a profit. Eventually 1 of 2 things happen - someone gets greedy and tries to undercut everyone else pushing rates artificially low again and we repeat a housing market crash in the next mild depression or banks make obscene profits for an extended period of time. 2 guarantees that 1 will happen - greed will always see someone seeking to take advantage of 1.

I’d seriously be happy just tossing a mobile home or cabin on a large plot of land and living there. No need for this “fancy” house and all the new cars. Self reliance is where it’s at.
