Extreme Home Makeover show?!
Question: Extreme Home Makeover show!?
What do you think about the mansion they built for the "needy" family in Georgia in 2005 that is now in foreclosure because the family used it as collateral on a $450,000 loan for a business and then lost it!? I watch this show alot and I always thought it was touching!. Now I wonder if this family was even in need in the first place or were they just ignorant in their choices!? What do you think!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

i loved that show once upon a time too!. but then i saw it take place in real life!. it is absolutely the most phoney baloney thing ever!. when they show that the stars are carrying out the end of the families things ready to knock the house down it's already been emptied for days!. the boxes the stars are carrying are empty!. the family moved out a few days before they start filming!. the new house is built in pieces and waiting just a few houses away!. the cranes they have people run with and look like they're destroying the house do that same shot about 10 times!. they yell and run then back up and do it again and again!. just goes to show that that show really doesn't do it for the greater good they do it to get better ratings and money from sponsors!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I think the need was there to begin with but that they made a choice to use it as collateral that was not a sound business decision!. I wonder what made them think they could handle a large business loan like that when they cannot manage to put a roof over their heads!. I hope extreme makeover puts a clause in the agreements on future houses they do that the house can not be used as collateral or second mortgage--people need to respect the gift they are given! I think it is a shame that the company giving the loan accepted them for a loan!. I guess for some people it is a mindset of "easy come, easy go"!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I think it is a terrible waste!. There should be something in the contract to put the home in some kind of trust so no one else could do the same!. A couple months ago I read where one of the families kicked out the kids!. This couple took in 3 or 4 boys that the parents had died etc!.!.!. They got the big pretty house & kicked the boys out----that one pissed me off too!. It is a great show with a good idea, but the people need to be protected from themselves!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
after reading the answers, I would not be watching this show with tears in my eyes anymore going poor family!. HAHWww@Enter-QA@Com
