• Related • Filed Under
In a segment on CBS that aired yesterday, 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley talks to investment and credit experts about the new types of mortgages that will create a second wave of foreclosures. The country has already suffered the subprime mortgage crisis, and the experts say the next wave of risky mortgages to default are the Alt-A and option ARM mortgages, which were also bundled into Wall Street securities and sold to investors.

How can we estimate when this will end when it is not clear what the long term status of the job market will be? What reasons do we have to believe that the job market will turn around? What reasons do we have to believe that our wages will increase and that cost’s will go down? What reasons do we have to believe that we have stabilization in health care costs and finally what reasons do we have to believe we will ever see S.S. and medicare? It is not just housing. We are in trouble in every way

R we only capable of passing greed laws at this point. I want a mortgage that is adjustable. Adjustable to fair market value. My grandfather took out a loan 50 years ago to start a business. They gave him ten years to repay it. He repaid it in one year. The next year he bought a house free and clear. To all the BMW driving pinto owners, your getting what you bought. Insecurity. I want what I pay for.

the only people recommending buying a house are real estate agents. Renting is so cheap it just makes no sense to buy an asset (house) and watch it lose value over the next five years.

That guys feels so guilty to clear out the homes, but he had no problem cashing in on selling them.

this country is going to collapse and break into ideological factions fighting to “restore” the nation, which in reality will be jackals ripping apart the dead carcass of what once was the United States.

Actually, the soviet union has already outmoded the USA. It just looks different, but your economic “system” leads to the same result. Anyway, this crisis affects less than 1% of the worlds wealth. Its funny how much panic is going on just because some anal-ysts are predicting further crashes. Its like suspecting a car will explode because one backlight is defect.

how can a home owner be resposible for 90% of any mortgage loan? for example, a 100k loan, from a bank, for a mortgage loan is 90% made up out of thin air. “fractional reserve banking”. so, the way i see it is, the home owner only owes 10% of the loan (10k). how can a bank loan the money if they don’t have the other 90% (90k) of money? legally the home owner owes only 10% of the mortgage.

Wonder if “Oscar” ever gets to move out a family he himself conned into buying an overpriced house that he knew they couldn’t afford.
How do you think Oscar feels about that?
