5. It pisses me off. . . .
. . . . that there are likely to be instances where people gamed the system and will walk away with homes they never paid for.

It pisses me off that there are likely to be instances where people who could never possibly have afforded the homes they bought, who fell for the brokers' lies and schemes, and sank everything into their homes have already lost everything and it's too late to recoup.

It pisses me off that a lot of people worked hard and put everything they had into their homes, never got the "lucky" break, and are looked down on by those who do.

It pisses me off that the outfits who did nothing but push paper -- the mortgage brokers, the title companies, etc. -- made their money by the fistfuls and don't give a shit what happens to the people afterward.


I damn near lost my home because of errors I had already caught in the paperwork. The property was paid for, should have been free and clear, but the title company fucked up even AFTER I pointed out their mistakes. Over and over and over, I tried to get them to correct the errors, until finally, with just two days remaining before I'd have been declared in default on a mortgage that was less than 10% of the purchase price to begin with AND was paid in full -- then, they finally admitted they'd made mistakes.

All of this pisses me off, but NOTHING will piss me off more than if the banks get bailed out for their own stupid greed AGAIN.

Tansy Gold, free and clear
