Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Michael Lush, the founder who spent nearly two decades in the mortgage industry before realizing the system was designed to keep Americans in debt — and decided to do something about it.

Michael breaks down why your 30-year mortgage is costing you hundreds of thousands in unnecessary interest, how most homeowners can pay off their home in 5 to 7 years using a strategy banks quietly use themselves, and why nobody in the industry ever told you this existed.

If you own a home or plan to buy one, this is the most important financial conversation you'll hear all year.
