In a few words, as I wrote here, market players were looking for and underwriting the bubble mortgage market ...
If you're like me and think that our current financial reform legislation stinks, you'll be happy to know we're not alone.

You would think that a man who lives in a home with a 12ft high perimeter hedge, with a private access road, and who has a £4 million salary could afford to pay for his own private security.
