You missed the most … You missed the most important part. The Government encouraged secondary market, the GSE’s Freddy and Fannie and the CRA. The Government encouraged the bad loans and created the secondary market rules that caused all the irresponsible lending. THAT IS THE POINT, GOVERNMENT CAUSED IT.
Greed, things the … Greed, things the last decade went incredibly fast. What about the Credit Bureau they have a great part in all of this mess, their words are investors God. If they say thumbs up they buy it…….
Just to clarify – … Just to clarify – The price of all houses may increase with inflation, but the real value of a house does not increase unless there is demand/supply situation in which buyers have increasing demand AND a legitimate ability to pay. In an economy with no bubble there should be enough construction to maintain an essentially constant price unless you live in Manhattan or some similar situation. In an inflationary situation houses will rise no faster than any other commodity.
Exactly. You are … Exactly. You are 100% accurate. We can blame the government all we want, but people do not realize how connected we are. We do NOT live in a zero-sum economy. Which means that, yes, indeed, what we do affects the guy next door in a small, but real way. By being an unscrupulous with our finances, we have deprived the world of stable economy. But the law should protect us from people that supersede the rights of others, as it tries to do already. So ultimately I blame the government.
Just hear the part: … Just hear the part: “Boss, u are a genious” … “I know”….
Actually, their personal assets are very good… some ppl got very very rich… I guess that from now, we will be more careful, even if the market is not…
House Prices ALWAYS GO UP – this is TRUE but only in the LONG TERM which is at least over a DECADE and they go up in a certain fixed manner – they do NOT go up SUDDENLY with MASSIVE SPEED as we witnessed – by 200% in 5 Years as then they come DOWN at the SAME SPEED until it comes to its NATURAL/REALISTIC PRICE based on AVERAGE INCOME of the nation.
So the Property Bubble of the West UP the WEST and some of the World!.
Yes and all these … Yes and all these bad loans have been insured by (Credit Default Swaps)and not just on houses, bad bonds, bad loans $64 Trillion of them and guess what that insurance has just been passed on to the US taxpayer. Yes $64 Trillion!!!!!! America is going suffer financial collapse in months not years
This is a brilliant … This is a brilliant well put together video. I really thought this world was too far economically advanced to see another depression but it seems that I am wrong. I really hope we don’t see one. And what’s caused all this? Greed.
2vintage68 got it spot on when he says the same players in the video want to dump all the losses on us, not them. If the world economy melts down then we are all fucked.
Half the story? … Half the story? Look at when this was created sim… 6 months ago! Long before Fannie, Freddie, Lehman, Merril and all these politicians now screaming armageddon… this was when they were still yapping about “The economy is sound, go out & buy more stuff.” I’d say it was a of a forecast…
