Sometimes you get a frank speaking knowledgable person that sums up the day's thought succintly and in one sentence.  Speaking on the Financial Crisis, legenday investor Jim Rogers, in an interview reported on CNBC this morning said the irresponsible people need to go bankrupt if necessary.  Here is the quote - you'll love it since it is So True!

"I thought it outrageous that anybody has to step in to bail out a bunch of 29 year olds driving Maseratis," he said

The whole interview is on CNBC with a video clip too.

I have some articles on the bail out that may be helpful to you at these links.

EMERGENCY ECONOMIC STABILIZATION ACT -WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU

BAILOUT FOR HOMEOWNERS - WITHOUT WALL STREET

A word of caution - to make the homeowner bailout work you need to have lenders participating in the HOPE program and FHASecure program -- to date I have not heard of a single one!  So much for voluntary programs.

It appears the politicians think the only ones that vote are people losing their homes?

Be sure to contact your own attorney for your state laws, and always consult your own attorney on any legal decision you need to make.  This article is for information purposes and is not specific advice to any one reader.

Why not?  The politicians are doing it for years.  No one even investigates them.  That is what has happened.  Then again no one has demanded Obama, Dodd and others give back monies obtained from lobbiests from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Senator Dodd and Schumer got favored loans from Countrywide.  So what's a few Maseratis?

Goodness.  I have no sympathy for the Wall Street traders.  I hear them whining on the news and I just sit here and shout.

HEY guy, (or gal).  Didn't you save any money from that $1,5 million you raked in last year????????

I have to agree. It's rediculous.
