Well... given the 10% rise in Tax for a Home Mortgage, being able to push it out further than 30 Year will at least keep the payments more manageable, and at the same time sort out some Inheritance issues.

Why not 500 years, Japan’s government will never start paying its debts down.

Are there still people these days who buy govt or other investment grade bonds as a productive investment?
I assumed the market consists of the BOJ, businesess that earn yen in international trade and need somewhere to park surplus cash, and investors seeking temporary save havens.
