Go from riches...back to rags again!...Sort of like Monopoly in reverse...Start out with a paid-in-full home...Keep borrowing against your home's accumulated equity to supplement your excessive lifestyle...Then wait for the bubble to burst! The first one to go broke AND homeless as a result of irresponsible spending...WINS!!!

What a clever post. You are right about how close to reality it is. I assume there are things to buy and bills to pay until you over extend yourself. lol This should be the true L.I.F.E.
game. Nice post Ron.

Excellent creation, Ron! The concept is sad, but true. This makes that message poignant.

Art that's going to hit at the heart of many who view!

Up here in the sticks, however, we live as simply as we can. Need a hook for your hat? I'll just add an extra nail over here next to the rest of 'em. Good enough, I'd say...lol..

It's a sad day for all of us that folks can't just live within their means. I sure hope this is a lesson that history teaches and doesn't need to repeat.

EDIT You sure hit one of my controversial buttons with this one. Congrats..not many do!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

Not to worry though Ron I'm sure all the major landowners, & big businesses love these conditions. :o)
This is one game I ain't playing myself, but I'm keeping an eye open for those falling above me. Lol

The message is really serious, but I also had to smile - the artwork is excellent.
