Publisher's Summary
Many people are both alarmed and confused by what they've heard about the "$700 billion bailout. They're worried about their savings, their jobs and their homes. This audio provides an understandable analysis on how the bailout bill impacts you, and offers "to do" or "not to do" steps for you to follow. It is a must have for all investors. Best-selling author Paul Muolo has been reporting and writing on the mortgage crisis for some two decades and brings his seasoned and skeptical approach to his work.
