CNBC House of Cards - Great Show!
I just watched CNBC's House of Cards, a show about the causes of the mortgage mess, and ultimately, the financial crisis we're in now.
I thought I would post because the show is being repeated tonite (Saturday) at 10:00 pm and tomorrow (Sunday) at 9:00 pm.
Did anyone else watch it? I'd love to hear your thoughts.... I'm a financial-news junkie, and I thought they did a great job explaining this complex mess in an easy-to-understand way -- even my dh found it interesting. The stories of the families profiled really drove home how tragic it is.

If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.
Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"
