I somewhat agree. I made 54K last year and plan on renting out 3 rooms for $425 a month. I should have a ton of money left over to pay the $1200 or so mortgage and utilities I would think? But I'm sure alot of people just scraping by will look at this as just getting a free 8 grand to spend on whatever they want. What if they blow the 8 grand and get their house foreclosed before they are in it for 3 years. The government is going to want their money back. Could make for alot of problems.
