The richest one percent of this country owns half our country's wealth, five trillion dollars. One third of that comes from hard work, two thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons and what I do, stock and real estate speculation. It's bullshit. You got ninety percent of the American public out there with little or no Net Worth. I create nothing. I own. We make the rules, pal. The news, war, peace, famine, upheaval, the price per paper clip. We pick that rabbit out of the hat while everybody sits out there wondering how the hell we did it. Now you're not naive enough to think we're living in a democracy, are you buddy? It's the free market. And you're a part of it. You've got that killer instinct. Stick around pal, I've still got a lot to teach you. –Gordon Gekko
Unless you live in a remote and isolated place like Alaska(Shout out to Palin) and are completely disconnected from the happenings of the world, then you are being barraged by headlines describing the death of Wall Street and the American economy as a whole. But what does it all mean and how in the Sam Jackson did it happen? Lucky for you, you come to Molifeney which means you get the scoop on what is really going on. We are going to break down last week’s happenings event, by bloody event.

Peer to peer lending is trying to re-establish the FFA(Family, Friends, Acquaintance) finance connection. Many a person, Richard Branson of Virgin for one has received the startup money for their business venture; down payment on a home/vehicle; or just to get by money from an FFA. In a perfect world, all the deals done using the FFA model would work and everyone walks away smiling….the reality is that ISH happens. When it does, money issues can strain even the tightest of relationships. This is one of the reasons the traditional banking method has become so common. If you don’t repay a loan to the bank your credit will be damaged…but at least you won’t have to see your banker at the next family function.

I hope everybody’s been paying attention to the current state of the economy. If you listen to Wall Street or Fox News you’ll think that we’re headed into the great depression 2007. I’m no expert on the specifics of macro economic theory as it applies to the western hemisphere, but I’ve had enough classes to know that things are about to change, specifically when it comes to borrowing money and your cost to borrow money.
