Oh boy. Alot of that "trillion with a T" is based on real estate values. It's not cash in the bank. On paper doesn't mean crap unless you got it in your hot little hands. If RE bubble goes poof? I don't think it's going to pop, but it will only do so if jobs aren't sustainable (back to my argument above).
If you remember the recession of the late 80s/early 90s (the "Reagan hangover"), you'll notice there were alot of people with crazy debt then too. When they lost their jobs, and their real estate went down, they were sunk (couldn't realize any of their "worth on paper". All the optimism in the world didn't work. This is reality: JOBS JOBS JOBS..... Cash is king....
Next?
