The housing crisis began years ago and is the product of a whole heap of junk that’s already been talked about too much, so I won’t bother you with more of the same. The blame game has been played over and over, and the result – it’s everyone’s fault.
It’s been a rough ride complete with more than 100 small, medium, and large builder bankruptcies, billion dollar mergers, government bailouts, millions of foreclosures and way too many job losses; none of this ride has been fun. Fortunately for us, publishers documented much of the crisis and used humorous images to help, below are a few. Which one is your favorite?

I think I have to go with Mr Housing Bubble. Sometimes when things are really bad you just need to laugh.

I agree that the Mr. Housing Bubble is one of the best ones you have. That one explains it all pretty good.
I liked a few of them but Mr Housing Bubble was my favorite. I think the wierd happy face was pretty amusing

Picture no. 10 is my favorite. But many others are also very good.
Mr Housing Bubble by a mile. I gave my broker a Mr. Housing Bubble T-shirt for Christmas last year.
I think that they are all great as although they are funny they are very true accounts of what has been going on. However, I still cannot get over the anger I feel about this whole disgusting situation….!
Picture 15 does it for me. It so sums up how we got into this mess in the first place. I think the financiall institutions should be embarassed with their selves.

I love the pics. Unfortunately, we have a long way to go before we are out of this bust imo. Unemployment is up, interest rates can’t stay low forever, and the commercial real estate bubble hasn’t reached max pain yet. On a personal note, Michigan is feeling this bigtime.
LOL – That’s the truth. Drunken hook-ups make as much sense as any for many of the decisions that were made that led to this crisis.
Pics are really funny!!! It is definitely true that house prices are sky high. If one property is listed on Sale there are 10 buyers in queue. With increasing home loan interest rate once could not think of buying a home.

All pictures are great, but my favorite is picture no. 4.
Mr. Housing Bubble for me by a mile! I actually think all of them are really funny, but he puts the nail on the head. If you can still have a sense of humor in this real estate market, you’ve probably already got 1 up on your competition.
Housing problems is a serious matter. There are different faces of poverty in every country. People with no homes sleep on the streets while some sleeps somewhere that can provide a little warm. Our government should work hard to minimize poverty.
