About this episode
Chris, Saied and Haroon unpack the outstanding mortgage market by rate before hopping in to an example of how tenuous the business has become for lenders and their employees. Then they dive in to some chart work with sexy visual stimulus regarding the current state of the consumer credit market. To round off the show ahead of jumping in to Saied's self-inflated basketball ego, they boys take a look at Americans' net worth at every age.
