Pages : 304
Book Description
Destiny took her seat, holding her hands tightly in her lap, trying to remain calm. The events of the day were catching up with her with lightning speed. She took a few slow, deep, calming breaths and let them out, hoping they would begin the boarding process soon. The fear of being caught lingered on her mind. If she let it, Destiny knew, it would take her over completely. Just thinking of Stanley, of everything that had happened, made her feel dizzy, and she forced herself to push it away. She couldn't wait to say one day that it was a lifetime ago. A lifetime she'd never forget. And a mistake she'd never make again...and certainly not with anyone like Stanley. Straightening, Destiny turned to face the boarding attendant. It was time to start her new life.

The US housing bubble had reached its pinnacle by mid 2004 and thousands of Americans were affected. A flood of unconventional loans were unleashed onto the market, a substantially large number of new homes were sold, and refinancing had become the new trend.

As he attempted to organize himself to move, he realizes his life is anything but organized. After his family hit major financial turbulence, he put his dream on hold. With the frustration and tension building at home and with his girlfriend Tracy, he is left with few options. He opts to take a job with a hot mortgage company. With no intention of staying long, he doesn't realize his life is about to change. Allen is suddenly sucked into the lifestyle, the money, and the bubble. His dream is buried under the piles of money that he is making, but that can only last a while. Like any other deep-rooted passion, it continues to find its way back into his life. Step back-stage into the world of aggressive mortgage brokers and their breeding grounds. Experience first-hand their tactics, their commissions, their lifestyles, and how the Sub-Prime market generated so many homeowners to take out unsuitable loans including ARM's, Interest-Only's, and Option Arm's. Elements which helped fuel the bubble and lead to our current crisis. Relive the bubble and experience the crash through the eyes of a young man who's life changed dramatically in a near fateful way.

96 TEARS is tribute to the human spirit. When all seems bleak and the mind sinks to lows it thinks impossible to handle, the heart and soul remain the substance of true character. Being destitute broke, down-and-out; having near-death experiences; and having been used and abused would lead many to give up. It is only after such experiences do the magical, mystical forces of faith come into play. Faith is the driving force that lifts us up from the depths of our darkest despair. This is a story of never-ending perseverance, the song the heart and soul sing to never, ever give up!

Tears We Cannot Stop
Author: Michael Eric Dyson
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1250136008
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
“A hard-hitting sermon on the racial divide, directed specifically to a white congregation.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review A New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, and Boston Globe Bestseller As the country grapples with racial division at a level not seen since the 1960s, Michael Eric Dyson’s voice is heard above the rest. In Tears We Cannot Stop, a provocative and deeply personal call or change, Dyson argues that if we are to make real racial progress, we must face difficult truths, including being honest about how Black grievance has been ignored, dismissed, and discounted. In the tradition of James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time—short, emotional, literary, powerful—this is the book that all Americans who care about the current and long-burning crisis in race relations need to read. Praise for Tears We Cannot Stop Named a Best/Most Anticipated Book of 2017 by: The Washington Post • Bustle • Men’s Journal • The Chicago Reader • StarTribune • Blavity• The Guardian • NBC New York’s Bill’s Books • Kirkus Reviews • Essence “Elegantly written and powerful in several areas: moving personal recollections; profound cultural analysis; and guidance for moral redemption. A work to relish.” —Toni Morrison “Here’s a sermon that’s as fierce as it is lucid . . . If you’re black, you’ll feel a spark of recognition in every paragraph. If you’re white, Dyson tells you what you need to know—what this white man needed to know, at least. This is a major achievement. I read it and said amen.” —Stephen King “One of the most frank and searing discussions on race . . . a deeply serious, urgent book, which should take its place in the tradition of Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time and King’s Why We Can’t Wait.” —The New York Times Book Review
