Video of the Day
NOTE: The video of the day (or so) won't be a post - it will just be at the bottom of the page. It's just for fun when I feel like updating it. People frequently send me funny videos, but I don't want to make them posts, so this gives me an outlet to put them on the blog. CR
At the bottom of the posts, I've started posting a video of the day. I'll try to change it every day or so. I'm trying to pick videos that are funny or related to housing and /or the economy. Please don't read too much into the videos I pick - and please feel free to suggest other videos.
Here were the first few couple I picked.
Professor Shiller speaks on housing at the Jackson Hole 2007 Symposium. | |
Students at the Columbia Business School Spring 2006 Follies make fun of their Dean and Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke to the Police's "Every Breath You Take". | |
Professor Krugman on housing from Sept 2006. Here is a quote from Dr. Krugman, in a "Paul Krugman responds to reader's comments" on the impact of mortgage equity extraction: "Actually, a lot has been written on that, although mainly on blogs like calculatedrisk.blogspot.com, my go-to site on housing matters. So far the effect of the housing slump on consumer spending has been much less than I expected, although there are hints in the data that it's finally beginning to bite." |
Best to all.
