We've got that one beat here in Georgia. A Clayton County family got one of those Extreme Makeover homes. Not only were they given the new house, their mortgage was completely paid off. In addition, they were given $100,000 in cash to be set aside for their kids' college education.

They ended up taking out a $450,000 mortgage on the totally-paid-for house. They ended up blowing that cash along with the kids college money. By the time the house was foreclosed on, they were almost two years delinquent in paying the city for garbage pickup.

There sure are some horror stories .. makes ya wonder
how they could really be better off from all this extreme
generosity, especially since they seem completely in the dark about handling their new situations.

Typical. These types never appreciate what is done for them.
