Financial Crisis Of 2008 Case Study - 1626 Words

James Polley, Latifer James, Michelle Current, Tione Nkhono Lisa Forbes FNCE 330 1 November 2016 Financial Crisis of 2008 It all began with the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September of 2008. What followed this collapse was a domino effect which saw a near crash of the world’s financial industry, shortly leading to the greatest recession since the Great Depression. This great economic disruption would subsequently require hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars and government debt to straighten out. After years of relatively low inflation and stable growth, financial institutions had become too comfortable and began taking more risk and carrying out hazardous policies and practices. Mortgages were granted to a large pool of people, including those who ordinarily wouldn’t qualify for them. Banks got into the habit of lending these â€Å"subprime† loans with higher interest rates to individuals with low credit scores. These borrowers were among the first affected by the downturn. Some sources say that European banks borrowed heavily from U.S. banks to purch ase risky stocks, and there is speculation that this played a major role in the financial crisis (â€Å"Crash Course†). These subprime loans were pooled together in the form of collateralized debt obligations, or CDO’s. Banks and experts believed that loans from different cities were uncorrelated, and that different housing markets rose and fell independent of one another. The theory was that these loans, pooled together wouldShow MoreRelatedThe Economic Crisis Of The United States1680 Words   |  7 Pages Although the global economic crisis in 2008 occurred in many countries around the world, it was originally initiated by the United States of America.

Athiesms Problem Essay Example For Students

Athiesms Problem Essay To any of you who doubt the presence and magnificence of our Lord, Jesus Christ; first, I must say that I understand exactly where you are coming from. I, too, at one point was a non-believer. Moreover, I was violently anti-Christian to the point of persecuting these children of God. The following is a letter of my conversion to Christianity. It reads through from my early years and the person that I was at that time through to my troubled childhood and teen years all the way to where I am right now. I will focus on and demonstrate the many ways in which I know that Jesus Christ is Lord and God. Hopefully, you will listen with an open heart and realize the wonderful truth that took me so long to see. At the end are a few easy Bible verses to read for further study. My childhood was much like any other. I was born on January 13, 1980 to loving parents and a solid home. Everything was as good as things could be. I very vibrantly remember when I was two years old writing my name on a piece of paper and running around to show my mother what I had done. It was very important to me even at that young ago to feel respected and loved. I remember playing with my sister and chasing her around the house. We loved each other and our situation. When I was very young, my mother and father divorced and my father left us completely. That was the deal; if he left, it was going to be a clean break. I still remember seeing him for the last time when I was four years old. In the coming years, I would end up seeing him again, but not before much damage had been inflicted in our home. My mother remarried a friend of my fathers and things again went quite smoothly indeed. I had a fairly strong bond with my stepfather. We did many exciting and interesting things toget her. I very much enjoyed our time and could not get enough of it. When I was seven, I gave the word that I desired to quit Cub Scouts. This was one of the stronger bonding opportunities between the two of us. I did mention that I had good reasons for my request, but I knew at that very moment that things would never be the same. Storms came and washed away the happiness of my youth. Pressing financial difficulties coupled along with my familys growing lusts for material possessions drove us out into the wilderness of lies. From about this time, I was fascinated by everything mechanical, electrical and involving biology. My spare time at home was spent going through encyclopedia books in a concerted attempt to appease my desire for knowledge and at the same time to draw my mind away from my home life. At home, I would make various gadgets and take them to school. My classmates would marvel at the things I was doing. This, eventually, would be one of the many undoings of my life witho ut God. As the years passed, my former friends became very weary of my trinkets and tricks. They began to call me names and taunt me all the day. This escalated into a full torment which lasted approximately until I was 16. During this time, I fell into a deeper and deeper depression that never faded not even for an instant. I would go to sleep at night hating my life and hating everything else around me. The searing hate and unyielding depression would permeate my mind up until the moment that I fell asleep. Even in my dreams, I would hate myself. In the morning, I would open my eyes and the first thing that would pop into my mind was how angry and let down I was that I woke up again. My typical day would consist of waking up with a burning rage at 5:00 in the morning and going to school, where people would follow me around telling me to kill myself. I was followed around everywhere. No one would ever leave me alone. I even had a few teachers taunt me teachers that I didnt even have class with. I literally had no friends and no family. No one to turn to at all to vent my feelings to. Something happened along the way and my ability to actually feel any form of joy suddenly and inexplicable disappeared. When I was about eight years of age, my sense of pleasure, accomplishment, amusement and happiness simply vanished. I distinctly remember on many occasions trying desperately to laugh at anything in this world. I would do things such as watch television shows like Friends and no matter what I did, I was physically an emotionally unable to laugh. Everyone around me was laughing and talking about how funny these things on television were. I would move the air in and out of my lungs to fake a laugh because I didnt want anyone to know what was going on inside my head. Days ran into each other and there was no way to tell one from another. I no longer had days; I simply had one long never-ending day. This strengthened the non-stop barrage of condescending hate that drove me quite literally insane. After years of taunts and torment, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, everyone who used to follow me around and tease me just ended their torture and I was left all alone in my own mind. When I was 12, I discovered music. Up until this point, I had never listened to music because the only bands that I had ever come into contact with were terribly unmusical ones. This is the time that I discovered my bad music. The music I was listening to did very much make me feel better at the time and made me realize that I was not the only one in the world feeling this way. It did, however, help to drag my spirit even further down without my knowledge. Through years of torment, coupled with a uniquely strong video recorder-like memory and an uncontrollable ability to continually run through my day over and over again, I eventually did go insane. Because of my memory, even when people were leaving me alone (which in itself may have even been worse to be completely ignored) I constantly played back what they did do to me. When I would re-experience the memories over and over again, all of the accompanying emotions would play back along with the images. The burning hate and rage an d depression was right there in the memories, too. In my mind, I quite literally was going through a constant torture even when I was perfectly alone. At some point during these years, the pressure built up in me and other than being extremely susceptible to illness, I began to develop a tightening in my chest. It began as what would feel like a tension that would come and go, but after a while, it never left. Slowly, this tight feeling in my chest began to grow and manifest itself in much more powerful ways. The tight feeling I was having grew more and more unbearable and its hold on me was too much to take. These pains felt as though a car was actually parked on top of my chest. As this phenomenon grew in intensity, it also expanded in duration. No longer was I getting pangs of chest pain, now I was having in all-out non-stop flood of physical pain that was so intense I had to fight in order to breathe sometimes. It was incapacitating. Eventually, it came to a point where it would never go away for even a second. From the very instant I woke up in the morning to the last thing I remember at night, these extreme chest pains were t orturing me. It got to the point that I would have done anything to get rid of them. Business Ethics EssayI can see now just how much God loved me all through my early years even when I screamed at Him and cursed His name and even when I didnt believe he was real. I now am at ease with life because of Him. Sure, life is not easy, but its different now. I have my mind set on a new focus and it has changed me. No longer am I ruled by what doctors or science may say or what evil may come my way. I have a great protector that is very real and fights my battles for me. It is true. If you believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and came to earth to die for your sins and on the third day was resurrected from the dead, then you are a child of God and you may follow in his steps. The wages of sin is death and Jesus is the only one who can take away your sins. As long as you believe in Him and try your best to follow Him, then he will do the rest for you. He truly is a marvelous God. But beware, because there is a very real battle being waged in the spiritual realm. One that I was stuck right in the middle of, but God won me over to the winning side and gave me life! Be on guard because after reading these words, if you decide to give your life to God, there will initially be an enormous opposition and you will be pulled in two different ways. As long as you are not of God, you are siding with the devilthere is no middle ground. If you are not for God, then you will be used for evil even unknowingly. I was on a path to be a very powerful instrument of evil in this world. If only I had known that I was helping out the very one who was destroying my life, I would have stopped and reconsidered where I was going. Please, just take a step back from yourself for a moment and consider all the things you have done today that may have helped the evil to spread just a little farther in this world. Every time you said an unkind word to someone or lied to someone or cheated them you have helped to bring a little more evil into this world. I was so blinded to all this before my conversion, but now it is all so very clear that at times I am amazed how I didnt see it before. In closing, I testify that all these words are true and I hope and pray that this has helped you in some way to understand God and why we Christians love and trust in Him. This is not some unseen force which may or may not exist. We can actually feel His love and care. When we pray, our prayers are answered. When we are attacked, we call His name and He gives us relief. On top of that, some of us have seen amazing and sometimes even frightening things which can only be explained by the fact that God is real. Some of us have even prophesied the future in the name of the Christ to watch it come true in front of our own eyes. So, if you realize how much you cant go through life alone or have something pressing down on you so hard you think you may die, call out His name and ask that He show you His love so that you may believe. God desires all to come to Him, no matter who they are or how bad they may be. If I can be forgiven, anyone can. I was the worst of all and the Lord called me ou t personally to fight for Him. Remember, many will come claiming to be God and claiming to know the way. Test everything and never believe a word unless it can be backed up by verse. God be with you all.
