From the site: "There is only one original note for your mortgage that has your signature on it. This document proves you owe the debt and they should be required to produce it." Often your lender sells your mortgage to a third party which trades it on the stock market. Because of this it is difficult for them to find the note stating you owe them money and buys you valuable time to find a job. ....View Comments (0)

I always find it amusing how companies feel the need to endlessly merge and buy each other out. My own company might even look a little like this (but not as bad). The funny thing with this chart is, the govt. originally broke up AT&T to stop it as a monopoly, and 25 years later, there's only 3 companies left, with one of the AT&T spin-off companies (SBC) actually buying AT&T, the original company. I've been trying to find a similar chart for the TV/Movie studios since their as bad, if not worse than this chart but I've had no luck. ....View Comments (0)
