Im not a good American. I hate borrowing.

The rates dropped so low a few years ago that a lot of people took the risk. I think for some, they don't think long term and the economy looked pretty healthy not so long ago. They see, they want. Even with the initial savings most would have been better off at prime or higher, but I'm not so sure how this affected the guy selling you the loan.
