You might be "interested" to know that the interest only loans
originated in the UK in the 80s.  AAMOF my wife, a home mortgage
underwriter, actually refers to them as a LIBOR, which is actually the
acronym for London Interbank Offered Rate.  So, the US actually copied
the UK on these instruments.

But we have created our own nooses.  One of the deadly ones was
"stated income".  And the 100% LTVs.
