[malangsob]

yeap thats life bud...suck it up.

[bigmcnazzty]

Looks like a rich boy just complaining about not making the millions he formerly made. Look at that house............come on. I come from poverty the lowest income income neighborhood in allegheny county. EVERYDAY is a struggle. Stop whining and do what u gotta do to live.

We've got to repent and pray for one another. Make no mistake, this is GOD's judgment, not just part of a cycle, or government mismanagement, or even corporate greed. Those are only part of the problem. Change your lifestyle to what is pleasing to GOD! It takes faith... "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." (Heb 11:6) I'm not perfect either but we got to resist sin!

im not sure why this guy is complaining-many have lost there jobs in this region as well as all over this country. Pgh born and raised. im wondering if this guy is a "transplant"

[mckbaseball22]

Welcome to America buddy. We will all be fine when BUSH and his horrific party are out on the streets.

[yahoovisitor]

The way Earthquake affected people afraid of their cracked walls & roofs to be falling on them are sitting under the open sky in the chilled cold, similarly the US investors afraid of declining economy are not investing any more in the collapsed US financial crisis scared of their investments to distort in the suicide economy, thus making the US economy balloon burst altogether. 3:54 And (the unbelievers) plotted and planned, and Allah too planned, and the best of planners is Allah.

I am from Pittsburgh on the north side of town and you need to wake up we are all struggling just to get by. VOTE OBAMA

[cskirk]

As soon as I heard that your old job was in the mortgage industry, I did not feel sorry for you. Pigs get fat and Hogs get slaughtered. The mortgage industry has destroyed the Midwest. Cleveland, Detroit, Indy, etc.. have been devistated by hogs like you making big commissions from loans that you knew the consumer should have never obtained. So don't cry when your gig was cut short by the economic trend.

How about you get a small suv and a hybrid too boot. Maybe if you were driving a green car and cut out the extras I'd feel bad. sorry you are doing just fine if you don't feel the need to trade in your oversized beast of a car.

[failderhorn]

If this video means anything to you consider voting for Dr Ron Paul.

[greenernick]

If he is concerned about the price of fuel, why doesn't he get a car which is a little more fuel efficient???  Does he really need a 4wd?

[abunas2008]

This is the sad truth and Americans needs to realise that their 'empire' is collapsing....USA GAME OVER!!!

[takerdust]

Back in the day, the husband could support the family alone. But back then people didn't have all the material gadgets and services they desire now. People want to have their cake and eat it.

[brengale]

the financial crunch is being felt by everyone I don't even own a home yet but we have cut living to the bone don't care about vacations and all that selling our excess every thing extra goes to save to pay cash for a small home in country and you can live on less if you have to get out of credit card debt and I agree sell expensive cars and get something economical I getting a bike to anything I can do to save for that house and not have to worry about big payments!

[oppenheimdavid]

sure drives a nice car for someone out of cash

[takerdust]

lol I noticed

[abcw828]

looks like the beginning of the end

[neotoy]

I agree, with all the comments, this guy is an idiot, yet typical of most Americans who seem fundamentally ignorant of basic cost cutting measures that most other nations take for granted. This is what happens when you let the TV raise your kids.

[egrab]

get a hybrid, cut your fuel costs in half instantly

[teemuruskeepaa]

No, get a compressed air car. Cheaper than anything and no pollution.

[neotoy]

Where do you think the compressed air comes from? Fossil fuels > electricity > compressor > Compressed air. It's not pollution free, don't delude yourself.

[teemuruskeepaa]

That's the clichée with cynical green alternative people when they see improvements. Electricity doesn't have to be produced from fossil fuels and the carbon foot print is only a fraction of any electric, hybrid or gas cars. World is not perfect but doesn't mean you should shoot yourself in the head.

[tma1982]

This what war and instability brings to people. Peace is the only solution.

[tommybarresi]

COREY FROM ADP EARNS 32K/YR!

[tommybarresi]

BOO FUCKIN HOO-----ASSHOLE!

[thebuddhamonkey]

How is he an asshole? All he did was lose a good job and get a crappy one. Now he's making the best of what he has.

[tommybarresi]

TYPICAL TOTAL ASSHOLE!! LIKE YOU!

[Nuh]

Wrong guy to interview.

Try interviewing a real middle guy and it'll be much, much worst.

[sfgox10]

FUCK, I'm a White American, and I live in a bumbfuck manufactured home, get over it you big baby, time to quit being a rich snob and live life with less luxuries!

[sugarmagnolia24]

I don't understand why he wouldn't downgrade to a more economic lifestyle. If he traded in his cars for hybrids or any fuel efficient car he would be saving a significant amount of money in fuel costs and car payments. In this situation you have to adapt and stop trying to live beyond your means. I dont understand why people have to keep up their old lifestyle when it causes them so much stress.

[Dedhedted71]

Life's a bitch. Look at this guys house! Most people dont even get to visit a place like that. Welcome to the real world buddy. The sub-prime people are reaping what they have sewn.
