Ralph,

First, your signature line is against the rules o this site. Second, didn't you make your money preaching to the masses they could become wanna-be Donald Trumps by flipping homes in suburban Detroit which contributed to the mortgage meltdown there? How many of those homes are now in foreclosure? How many did you represent as a realtor?

I keep waiting for the FBI to call me so I can explain to them how this all went down but they never do.

I was just wondering , if they could figure the profits from real estate fraud , those who bought , renovated , sold , with a fraudulent loan and never got caught , the bank made money on the loan along with everyone else , the= Realtor , the Broker all the way down to the gardner that planted the bushes , its got to be in the billions , so is that figure a wash ?
