Al (not his real name) knows that feeling well.

“Since J was 16 it's been a prob- lem,”’ said Al, now 58. “I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on interest, thrown away two small inheritances, lost my home and am still $175,000 in debt.”’

Al, a_ respected professional, said the beginning of what could have been the end occurred early in 1981, when real estate prices soared to record highs. (The fig- ures here are less important than the underlying principles.)
