fort worth real estate: How the Housing Crisis became the Credit Crisis... "The Perfect Storm"... real estate version ! - 05/10/08 01:49 PM
On Saturday Mornings, I usually begin my real estate weekend by driving about a total of sixty miles or so... visiting various open houses, or dropping in and visiting friends who are either past clients, or folks in my Top 33 Advocate Referral Group.
While I make the rounds, I usually listen to NPR... National Public Radio.  If I start early enough, I listen to those two Car Talk nuts from MIT, and then some silliness called "Wait, Wait... Don't Tell Me."
This afternoon, just after "Wait Wait"... the NPR series "This American Life" aired a program titled The Giant Pool of Money .  … (17 comments)
