In 1980 the nations total debt per person was less then $90,000 – adjusted to 2009 dollars. Today the nations debt per person is $186,717.

While most of our grandparents owned 80% of their house, in 2007 the typical homeowner only really owned 4 rooms of a 8 room house.

We have not yet come to the peak in foreclosures, we will go from 40% of all homes sales to 100% be the end of 2009 in the USA. That means as one house is bought another one is lost.
