Foreclosures are shifting to the top third of the local housing values, up to 30% in June 2009 from 16% in 2006 when the foreclosure crisis began, according to Web site Zillow.com. The bottom one third by home values now represent 35% of foreclosures down from 55% in 2006. This category of expensive homes includes exotic mortgages including interest only mortgages that allowed borrowers to defer principal payments for the initial period. Borrrowers are not able to refinance out of these mortgages.

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.
