    I just thought it'd be interesting to see what percentage of people have such an arrangement.

    Id say 46%

    I personally don't. I'm glad I don't because I was about to buy a house in 2007 but decided against it at last minute and was best decision I ever made because I'd have surely have lost it by now.

    I have a container of it in the cabinet we have our cleaning stuff in. Great for the wood surfaces.

    There doesn't seem to be an expiry date on it though?

    What is a dead pledge?

    Well, that is the literal translation of the word mortgage:

    1390, from O.Fr. morgage (13c.), mort gaige, lit. "dead pledge" (replaced in modern Fr. by hypothèque), from mort "dead" + gage "pledge;" so called because the deal dies either when the debt is paid or when payment fails. O.Fr. mort is from V.L. *mortus "dead," from L. mortuus, pp. of mori "to die" (see mortal). The verb is first attested 1467.

    The term comes from the Old French "dead pledge," and apparently meaning that the pledge ends (dies) either when the obligation is fulfilled or the property is taken through foreclosure:

    Coke, Edward. Commentaries on the Laws of England. “f he doth not pay, then the Land which is put in pledge upon condition for the payment of the money, is taken from him for ever, and so dead to him upon condition, &c. And if he doth pay the money, then the pledge is dead as to the Tenant”

    Now you know . . .

    An honest question to the plebs with mortgages: would you have saddled yourself with a lifetime of debt if 'dead pledge' was inked on the contract:pac:
