Mary Smith's house is going to decline about 50% in value this year. Also, she is going to get laid off, have total debt equal to 125% of her net worth and have cashed out of her 401k to cover her basic expenses.

Aside from that, she will have $7500 in high interest consumer debt, a mobile home that she is going to default on and a restrictive law saying she can not escape her debt. She won't be able to afford gas anymore and her house will be freezing in the winter and boiling in the summer.

The pennies she did save to invest in the stock market (oh yeah, she and her coffee clatch buddies thought Dixon Ticonderoga was a great investment, as well as koop.com (he has a nice beard)) are now worthless.

Furthermore, she will owe MSN $20 a month for that crappy computer she took the $400 discount on.

(Note: Mary Smith is not a real person. All names were disguised to protect the innocent. Any simularities between the real world and Mary Smith's life are totally coincidental. Thank you, remember to tip your waitress and try the veal.)
