The crisis in mortgages spares no one.

And when I say nobody, nobody is. Yes, folks, this time he has touched Mr. Monopoly the multimillionaire who names the famous board game and a member of the usual list of the richest fictional characters of the magazine Forbes, who leaves the list "after losing all his money carried by the crisis in mortgages High risk in the U.S..
