“Loan split… $500,000 non-deductible home loan… put $100,000 into the loan, split it into $400,000 or $100,000 and then go invest $100,000 in shares”
“I could take the $100,000 of cash, put it onto my mortgage, therefore it is a $400,000 mortgage. Then I go back to the bank and I say, hey, give me that $100,000 back. And they put it back in my account as a separate loan.”
