It's Crazy How This Life Unfolds

Some sad news hit the wire today. David Kellermann, CFO for bailed out home underwriting giant, Freddie Mac, was found dead in his own home this morning in what authorities are are calling a suicide.

It really is hard to see news like this, but I'm honestly thankful that we haven't seen more of these stories with the likes of AIG, Fannie, Freddie, Citi, etc... I can't even imagine what some of the folks in power positions have been dealing with. And, yes, they dug themselves into this mess, but it's still not an easy pill to swallow.

This quote really rung a bell today:

I hope our wisdom will grow with our power, and teach us, that the less we use our power the greater it will be.
-- Thomas Jefferson
