and, as always, I will point out the point of post GFC FinReg is to make sure these blowouts don’t topple the system, not to protect people from losing a lot of money

Every time I see one of these I think about the fact that it took my mom over a year AND some help from me to get a $50k equity loan from a bank to make structural repairs to the commercial-use part of a two story historic building she owns in my hometown (less BFE than Ohio, but barely)
