  1. I was too young to understand what was going on during the early 2000s, my parents did a great job to keep me distracted while they were struggling financially. Being 23 now and looking back now I really appreciate what they did for my sister and I while they struggled.

  2. The whole thing with too big to fail means that they cant be let fail BECAUSE if they did things would have been a heck of a lot worse. Anyway i was just 9 at the time lol.

  3. My only question is , how tf no one saw that coming ? How the government were unable to indicate where the market could go to if borrowers start defaulting. i wouldn’t be surprised if banks actually gave a mortgage to some homeless dude

  4. Oof sorry but there is a major repetition of a debunked assumption here. The crash wasn't caused by sub-prime lending. Research into mortgage data from before during and after the crash shows that sub-prime lending actually fell in the run up to the crash. The weight of lending across the board – to non sub-prime borrowers was enough to drive the crash.

  5. World Financial crisis was caused by greedy mortage investors? WTF. They should have been sent to prison. And why did house prices drop randomly? Like, why we all have to pay for somethinf ww didnt do

  6. Well nice my friend and i spoke on discord about the year 2008 and how we remmember being a financial crisis a few days later i get this recommended fucking google spies

  7. It's better to take an L and feed the companies than to have society fall and democracy be overthrow by nice promises that's why some of them are "too big to fail" 😅
