Default A different foreclosure story...

Television show - TV Show - Yahoo! TV

This one made me mad. I can't believe these people squandered away their home like that.

If I was given a home, debt free, I would live in that thing till I died. LOL I had some sympathy for foreclosures and can understand alot of what had happened.

But this one is not kosher.

"ABC said in a statement that it advises each family to consult a financial planner after they get their new home".

Sounds to me like that should be MANDATORY, especially since most of these families are low income and have never really owned anything really nice before. That these folks squandered such a wonderful opportunity is just disgusting. And ignorant, just plain ignorant.

I remember when Trading spaces was all the rave a few years back...they came to my town in FL, right next door to my boss (in fact, he was the house in the middle of the two "trading"). He learned through talking with his neighbors that they had to sign papers stating they would not sell the items made for them by the designers (i.e. eBay).

Just goes to show that there is no end to greed.

Very sad. There is a saying that says, "money does not solve money problems." It is so true....learning to manage money does solve money problems.
