    My father was a wonderful example. He worked hard to support his family of 8. He always said his job was a means to his end- Providing for us. He was humble yet always a leader. He was totally honest. He wouldn’t even bring a pencil home from work. He adored our mother and his morals were impeccable. I never heard him speak ill of anyone yet he held strong to his faith and his personal values. He and Mom were married 72 years. They had 6 children, 45 grandchildren and 101 greats when they died peacefully in their sleep-5 days apart. Men CAN choose between right and wrong. My father and mother did.

      The coruptio starts with the president who gave all the money to the banks so that they can pay their ceo instead of giving the money to the people who lost it because of the greed of the ceo. They should have put them in prison so that the equation of risk benefit would change.
      It happened again during the corrona that the money was trasferd from the poor to the rich and in the coming crisis it will shift was is left.

      I think the supposed problem solvers have become the fire starters, or the arsonists, the billionaires & venture capitalists from Silicon Valley-those who present themselves as a solution to industry problems.
      They act as consultants, learn all the inner working of a company (all their secrets) to create software and interface programs, completely created & designed from them & let’s say for them? Silicon Valley, is a close knit group, and they are all connected over all industries. And some have even crossed the forbidden lines into politics-with intent and personal agendas. An inner world, a world within a world, created & designed for them, by them.
      Now if they can obtain government power, they have full access to the inner workings, and economical power as well as the means to dismantle the Constitutional Federal Republic & replace it with a government that fits their needs-implementing no industry regulations, a market economy, & whatever they need for their global multi corporate interests. Trump and MAGA are just the distractions, they need to pull off a global heist in real time. And I think, it’s far more sinister than we can even imagine!

Bankers were just victims of government that forced them to give home loans to irresponsible people. This narrative pretty much saved bankers. It was sort of - oh, we had no choice. So it was government and irresponsible poor who should be punished. Government bailed banks, and irresponsible poor were punished with unemployment, social programs cut and inflation.

      "Inflation is reducing the value of the US dollar, but it is strengthening in comparison to other currencies and commodities like real estate and gold." so what is it's value being reduced against then, pokemon trading cards? The value of the USD can only be found by determining how much X can you buy per $, which means that unless you're a pokemon card collector the USD value is going up not down. Inflation, to be specific is the increase of money supply, which all else being equal makes it worth less. However, if the demand is increasing faster than the supply, then the inflation effect is canceled out and the value goes up. It's not complicated, really. If what you want to do is to keep your money, or rather the current value of it, then put it in something that has a limited supply, like real estate. You can't print more land. You can't discover more land. You can't find alternatives to land. You are not likely to win the lottery by owning land but short of the gubmint stepping in you're unlikely to loose much holding it, unless you buy housing plots or houses in bumfuggetsville somewhere at the edge of town - even there on a long enough timeline you'll win but doesn't help much if the timeline is 30-50yrs.
      Keeping value isn't hard unless you need the value to increase at a faster rate than market average, which you can typically only get by taking risks on. It's a simple game if you do it right, only buy what you understand and know the mechanics of. Price in any risk you're willing to take, never take winning for granted.

      But how many really want to live in an apartment or a tent? The problem arises when people want houses and properties that are beyond their means financially. The real lie is that the economy and property values will forever spiral upwards, so you'll soon be able to afford it as you'll be making more money. You might, but you'll be taxed more and inflation will make everything else more expensive. So, you really don't gain much in the long run. Add in a renovation, a few new roofs, property taxes and you may actually be in the hole decades out.

      People who lost their homes should not have taken out the loan to begin with. They could not afford it. Just because they were available doesn't mean you're not to blame for your poor choice. Why should the rest of us pay their loan? This is not to say we should have bailout anyone period. Bush's big mistake was to not let those bankers fail. He really blew it. Could have reeled in their power. Now they rule the world.

    I got one of those loans, as a single mom, in 1995 (yes, back when it was "common knowledge" that single women didn't get mortgages). Five percent down, balloon to refinance after 7 years. I knew I could afford it, just couldn't prove it. I am so thankful for that opportunity! My home is paid off, I have no debt and at 65 am now comfortable. It was difficult at times, but I was never late on a single payment, no matter what I had to do without to make it happen. I know that I am in a very rare group, that most had no clue how to know how much debt they could handle, how to borrow it, how to handle it. I am grateful that my perfect credit made it possible.

But if these politically disobedient repented the self-appointed political usurping elites who never run for office themselves will bless these repentants like Bill Clinton, GHWB, and others...

    Love terms like”vanished” and “collapsed.” Aren’t they synonyms for “stolen” or “sabotaged.” Makes sense in a criminal’s mind that people with huge amounts of money just lying around would be targeted for fraud and theft. It’s even in the Bible that saved up expendable cash would “vanish.” But at least the authorities are doing something about it. But is it enough?

    Very disturbing what happened without anyone being held responsible for their fraud.

    perhaps I misinterpret here, but... to me, it sounds like the first guy is sorry only because he got caught an made a bit of jail... he sounds so pathetic

      Here from France, i have the same feeling, as he says " i lost all i had "... forgeting that this behaviour was just other people's money. It seems he has'nt recovered from illusions yet. But it is good to get knowledge of financial world...
