I love mac and cheese. Usually have a side of Omaha Steak’s fillet though.
I like it too!
But really, that’s not the point, when I bought my place in 91, I paid ALMOST A THIRD in down payment. It had taken me ten years of my life to save that cash.
And now, people with alot shorter work history than me can get a much nicer place just by - what - having a pulse?
When you think about it, it’s pretty aggravating what happened. The mortgage brokers and money managers were able to influence the prices upwards... then, they just kept passing properties and equities back and forth, around and around, each time taking their cuts. Kind of like that Time Bomb game we played when we were kids.
But the people involved, the actual folks trying to set up a life and take care of their families, were just like hamsters running around in that little wheel.
Think about it.
