Idiots bought more house then they can afford from lenders who lent to much money on to easy terms.

Before calling someone else an idiot you should read a bit more carefully.

She didn't have problems paying her mortgage before she lost here job. She had owned the house for 12 years, so apparently she had been able to afford it.

How long could you pay your mortgage if you were out of work?

But that would require thoughtful attention to detail, thereby taking time away from posting lots more asinine remarks in the forum.
