Update On Ed McMahon And His Multi-Million Dollar Foreclosure Home

I saw Ed McMahon and his beautiful young wife on Larry King. He was
to explain why he is $644,000 behind on the note of his $5 million
dollar home at the age of 85. It was basically, well...stuff happens.

He explained with his two divorces, his accident, and well...he forgot
to mention his third beautiful young wife who had to have a $5 million
dollar home as her first house, but that was about it.

Because of his accident he can't work at the age of 85. Wow! who works
at the age of 85 to support a multi-million dollar mortgage. Anyway,
my heart goes out to him, he has my thoughts and prayers. And, if
anything comes out of this let it be a savvy money lesson for all of
you senior gentlemen out there, that some things are not THAT important.
Save your money, live off of your retirement.

Ed McMahan has had a long and successful career as a pitchman
for Johnny Carson and then for the sweepstakes. With his career
came large payouts for his services. But, now his home is in

Renters Are The New Casualty Of The Foreclosure Crises

We saw many programs on television during the real estate boom,
about flipping houses. Flipping is buying, remodeling, and immediately
selling homes for profit. There were signs posted all over my community,

Movie Stars Who Sell Their Babies

Times are tuff for all of us, but they seem to be the
toughest for movie stars. There is a huge baby boom amongst
them; whether married, never married, divorced or separated,
they are having babies. Lots and lots of babies. Then, after
they have the babies a peculiar thing happens. The public gets
to see the darling little tots, close up, in the face on national
publications. I'm told these publications pay handsomely for
photos of these movie star babies. So, that begs the question,
are the babies being conceived for money, especially when they
seem to have babies and get paid repeatedly? What do you think?

Wild Caught Salmon Versus Farm Raised Salmon


Salmon is my favorite fish. I like the pink color, rich texture, and delicious light
taste. Salmon has omega 3 fat, which is all the rage now. Omega 3 is considered an
essential fat that most Americans don't get because of the depletion of the omega 3
fats in most other foods. It is also a quality protein chocked with lots of vitamins
and minerals. So, salmon is both delicious and healthy, the problem is which to choose, ...

Government Home Foreclosure Rescue Plans Don't Go Far Enough

As most Americans know, America is experiencing its worse foreclosure
crises in history caused, in part, by adjustable rate subprime loans
and job losses. Now, the government is offering a couple of alternatives
to the constant flow of foreclosure homes onto the market. The problem is,
I don't think either plan will produce significant help for those in trouble.
I have outlined both plans below, the purpose of this article is to explain
the pitfalls in both. I call the first plan which was unveiled in September
2007 -- plan one, also known as FHA Secure, and the second plan, unveiled in
February 2008--plan two, also known as Project Lifeline. I am not sure when...

The U.S. Home Foreclosure Prognosis

When I search "have home foreclosures hit a bottom" I came up with 124,000
articles. Shocked by the shear number, I preceded to read the opinion on pages
of pages of search engine listings. There were folks who thought foreclosures
had hit bottom in 2005, we now know that is not true. Subsequently there are folks

I have been away from my blog for a while and I am sorry for that. I had pressing
issues to take care of this year, but now I am back. A lot has happened since I
last posted. Namely the reasons for war have changed continuously, and U.S. home
foreclosures have reached an all time record-breaking high in the United States.
These foreclosures seem to be due to a combination of bad home loans, some down
right fraudulent home loans and folks losing their jobs. Just about everything
seems to be made in China, India, Vietnam(once our arch enemy), or some other
poor country, hence the loss of jobs here.

There is one silver lining in all of this financial mayhem, company CEO's in
the United States are getting fired for bad production, bad business deals or
both, but they walk out the door with $100 million dollars, even though half
the company looses their jobs.

In this country we have increasingly poor public schools, inner city and suburban
gang violence, poor people getting imprisoned at a rate never before in history,
and middle class suburban shootings over issues as small as a single child support
payment.

A newspaper in a wealthy southern California city, San Diego just reported that
home foreclosures are up an astonishing 353%, more than 7000 in 2007 alone. As a
result the homeless population has exploded, many folks don't even have the
luxury of thinking about poor schools when their kids have nowhere to sleep.
Pray for the United States, their is still hope and their are still a lot of
good people who live here. We need new leadership and a new direction, hopefully
we will get it in our next president.
