my sister just purchased a Ford Flex.Her son was aghast.He has a Range Rover Sport.He then drove the Flex and apologized to his mother with the words "Mum this is a fantastic car!I am the idiot who paid $67,000 for my ride and you paid $32,000 for a ride that on balance is as good as the Range Rover."

Big Banks in Trouble: Huge Mortgage Write-Downs Seem Inevitable

please stop calling each other horrible names.We all dont know the future we are trying to make some "educated" guesses as to timing of certain events.My personal story on the real estate mortgage madness goes like this; my father died and left his home to my sister who in turn allowed her son and his family to live there.Just two months before the debacle hit a mortgage broker and his female side-kick visit my sister's son and believing the house belonged to them offered to get a mortgage from Washington Mutual for $400k for them-NO QUESTIONS ASKED as to income etc..My sister's son's income in his best year has been $32k with a young family of 5!!!Sisters son could not believe his luck having never seen $5k in his entire life.He was ready to emigrate to the moon!!!Needless to say my sister marched down to the home and threw these locusts out of the house.

Pathetic Display at Yesterday's Financial Hearings

I quote here from an article in the "Objectivist Magazine" in the JULY 1966 publication written by the infamous Greenspan.....this is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the"hidden" confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists antagonism towards the gold standard...
