re: #211 Afrocity

A couple of years ago, I was in a house designing a kitchen for a very nice couple. Very nice house, well appointed.

Couple seemed well to do…

Took their credit application. Between the two of them…$38,000.00. Three kids, $400,000.00 house. When their credit was declined, I asked them…

“How in the hell can you afford to live in a home like this with 38,000.00 in income.”

The answer they gave me sent a “We’re heading for some weird times” shudder through me.

They answered, “Two more years.”
