Mary Had a Little Lamb and a Jumbo Mortgage bloomberg.com May 20 (Bloomberg) -- Once upon a time, there lived a King who granted each subject enough money to make his home his castle. Everyone was content. The castles created vast riches throughout the land. Alas, the King had large armies to support, and the royal coffers had run dry. So he levied a tax on each household. And there was much misery throughout the land. The people rose up in protest. The King and his ministers knew not what to do. One day a fairy godmother named Fannie appeared. ``I have come to grant you one wish,'' Fannie Godmother said. ``One wish! Let us keep buying castles,'' the people said. ``I will grant you your wish,'' Fannie Godmother said. ``You will have money to buy new castles.'' And everyone lived happily ever after.
