It's more like I own part of the house than I am in debt. Without the mortgage, I would own none of the house.
Wtf? If I have $25K in cash in my savings account I don't have to check each day to make sure it didn't go down in value.

Answer this question please. In your mortgage contract, what happens when you miss a payment? If the answer is, you would default on the loan, you have debt.
