In the aftermath of last weeks financial disasters I failed to find an article/discussion that fully captures the gravity and repurcussions of such a historic event...until I came across this video. Although the discussion occasionally falls outside my scope of financial knowledge, the interview is easy to follow and summarizes the devestating outcomes.... the effects of which we will deal for years to come.
