Ventura County Bust

Here is a blast from the past. Remember this family from Ventura that had to "buy" a home?
See Ventura County Blues

Buying isn't always better than renting. Perhaps they managed to clip $174K worth of coupons. Anyway, it appears that their home-ownership amounted to renting at $2,900 / month for the loss, plus their mortgage payment of $3,500 / month, for a grand total of $6,400 / month.
