Visiting "Foreclosure Alley"
If you've got 10 free minutes and a strong stomach, watch this report on a community destroyed by foreclosures. There's video of deserted houses, still filled with TVs, computers, photographs, and other belongings, and an interview with a man who lives on a cul-de-sac of empty homes. He's literally the only one left. Pretty heartbreaking stuff.
Comments
Good video, thanks for sharing, but that's seriously depressing.
The majority of the people losing their homes should have been renting instead of buying. They should have not bought more than they could pay for. Now as a retired investor, I'm losing a lot of money because of mis- management of their own funds & the lending institutions & wall street. What a shame for us all/
