I feel bad for the working person who lost their home because they were laid off or had a medical catastrophe. However, the idiot who over-leveraged their home to buy 2nd properties or that took variable rate mortgages that soared and they can't sell and/or meet their payments? Not so much.

Look, it's devastating to lose your home. For almost everyone, it's your single largest asset. However, a fool and his money are soon parted, as they say, and I would bet that most people who lost their houses, lost them through imprudence.
