Here is an example from Table 3: A 70-year-old homeowner with a property worth $200,000 and no mortgage could receive a
payment of $637 as long as he lives in the house or $1,196 for ten years or $2,092 for five years. Alternatively,
within the first twelve months he could draw up to $116,308 on a credit line. If he waits ten years before accessing the credit line, he could draw between $165,773
and $398,398 depending on what happens with interest rates.
