    To all those complaining about pay ratios -- if you are that jealous of what top execs make, go become one, if you have the ability!

    If you believe you can do better...that public companies are filled with bloat...start up your own company!

    It's one thing to complain about salaries at those which took tax money, but don't get started capping pay at other companies. That's a very wrong road to go down. If you are an "underling" thinking you are underpaid...DO SOMETHING about it. Are you no longer free? Have no ambition? This is what drives our economy: freedom. Jealousy-induced artificial pay-capping only serves to remove one layer of freedom.

    I DO mind the deferal of payments AND the foreclosure moratorium...and ANYTHING that involves government subsidizing or forcing banks to take the hit for home buyers that cannot make their payments! This is SOCIALIST interference with housing on the taxpayer dime, and is costing those who prudently waited to buy doubly -- we are footing the bill for those who overbought and also not being allowed the price reductions that would & should be occurring!!!

    New help for homeowners. The White House is planning to announce new guidelines today to help homeowners struggling with Federal Housing Administration-insured mortgages. The guidelines will narrow the gap between the FHA's mortgage-modification program and the White House's foreclosure-prevention plan, and will "offer borrowers an opportunity to stay in their homes, make payments that are manageable and defer [payment of] the money owed to a later time when, hopefully, home values have improved.

    Apparently my biggest financial mistake ever was not buying a home I couldn't afford. This is a total CROCK!!!
