In a home mortgage transaction, you promise to
repay the loan and interest in monthly installments at
the interest rate and over the period of time which is
specified in your particular mortgage contract. Most
lenders will tell you that in the early years, when your
debt is largest, most of the monthly payment goes
towards the interest. Fortunately, the sum applied to
the outstanding debt gradually increases, so that in
the final years of the mortgage most of the payment
goes to the principal, and less to the interest More
