Let the mortgage games begin seems to be the battle cry of the mortgage lenders, banks, and government. Get as many butts in the seats as possible and well worry about how to keep them there later. Maybe its the disposable attitude our country has adopted, I think it started with the disposable razors. Lets blame it on disposable razors. Razors are the reason we are in this financial mess. Everything used to be permanent and now we view everything, I mean everything, as a temporary or disposable.
When my parents, and certainly my grand parents, bought a house it was to live in and raise a family, which meant at least 18 to 20 years. Thats not so much the case now. Now we use our homes as a way to build a financial portfolio, not that theres anything necessarily wrong with that, its just that we have such a different attitude about our homes as well as everything in our lives. This temporary attitude, I think, has lead us down the wrong road, maybe not personally or individually, but as a country we are on the wrong path, although, it always starts with the individual.
The more we get use to the temporary mind set the more we accept the government and policy makers temporary fixes and solutions to the very real problems you and I face in our lives. Nothing coming out of Washington and the financial sector is sustainable, and the games are being played with our livelihood. Is that a game we really want to play? We need to realize that this is not a game that has winners; there is no victory to be had for anyone playing this game.
