Re: "What I didn't really know is that Europe had their own debacle, similar to our's at the same time, with Eastern Europe. In addition they also bought the securitized crap from the USA. They borrowed free money from Japan at 0% interest and invested it in Eastern Europe. Then interest rates went up in Japan suddenly and everbody tried to hit the exits at the same time. Instant disaster....."
