The F.H.A. now insures 5.4 million single family mortgages, with value of $675 billion, and now is abig part of the mortgage industry. THe FHA the packages and sell them as securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Government National Mortgage Association. One expert predicts the losses from the 20% of loans insured in 2008 and 24% of loans insured in 2007 that the FHA Commissioner Stevens says have problems, can wipe out the FHA reserves of $30 billion. This means FHA would need a government bailout in the next 24-36 months. Already Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have cost the Treasury $96 billion according to a supervisory agency.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
