Nobody in their right mind would ...

Sure they would.

Just saw this commercial on TV:

"Pay off those holiday bills with a home equity loan from ---- ."

I couldn't believe my ears. But certainly thousands of financially-anxious ears perked up across the country at the mention of this quick fix for your financial woes.

What an awesome deal! Sign over the title to your largest asset, your house, to pay off charge card debts. The catch is, you're not paying off anything, and would put the place where you live at risk to "pay" for a year's worth of Christmas presents ... which no one will remember by Valentine's Day anyway.

Valentine's Day? Hey, that's right around the corner!

Maybe a car title loan is just the ticket ...
