Before the topic of the marathon race today, I would like to have a little bit explanation of the interest rate on my website. The real rate might be lower. Please email me if you are interested.

The main reason is that I do not attract shoppers. So I mainly work for my past clients and your friends. I got a few early payoffs this year(actually 4 payoffs, one of the lender did not want me to pay back since our volume was good, but I paid penalties for the other three). And I indeed told them not to refinance earlier. And one of them told me that the other lender's rate was low. And I told him drug dealers can make more money, do you want to do it?

The good thing was the payoffs was still less than 1%. So most of my clients are actually very very good. I indeed rejected a few loans, for example, I locked 2.75% for client, and he asked to re-lock the rate since other lender could lock a rate for 2.69%.

Back to the marathon race. We got the email yesterday morning that the race was cancelled due to increased covid-19 cases. So 3 of us decided to run on our own. The pace was not bad.

I took a water break on mile 9 & 19. I think my legs had a rest after that. I felt very good after the run, and took 1.25 hrs nap, and back to work on the loans again.

And I will follow shelter in place order for the next a few weeks/months
