It's been a bad time for mortgage companies and few know that better than Freddie Mac CFO Anthony Piszel. Piszel is having a real estate crisis of his own, the NY Post's Gimme Shelter column reports that he has put his luxury home in posh Easton, Maryland on the market. The home is a Georgian style brick mansion on 4.5 gated acres on Maxmore Creek. It includes guest quarters an inground heated pool with brick patio and detached 3 car garage. There are six bedrooms, six baths, formal dining and living rooms, a cherry-paneled den, game/media room and a kitchen that seems rather basic except for the impressively large range. It is listed at $4.975 million.

Well look no further than Phoenix, AZ at the condo in a high rise and tell me they care about the mortgage crisis, the word mortgage is not in their vocabulary.

Hope the best offer he gets is 10 cents on the Dollar.

Ever seen where Warren Buffet lives, in a 3 bedroom ranch worth $300,000 in downrown Omaha, Neb. No that is a low-key Billionaire. As stated above these guys should get paid for thier positive performance, everything should be performance based, the better you do for the company the more you get. Same w/ athletes, there should be a base salery and incentives piled on, then you'll see these boys play better on Sunday. I will miss Yankee Stadium

Banks that used to be local institutions servicing a neighborhood kept on growing and merging to serve the whole world. They were no longer satisfied making a reasonable spread between their depositors’s money and their (secured) loans. Investment banks, came up with exotic derivative instruments wrapped in packages, where the wrapping became the instrument with no underlying asset, leveraged under exotic names such as CDO's CDS's etc., They could be insured for a premium as a credit default swap as was done by AIG, which now turn out to have no value, just hot air. So, the balloon burst, which was inevitable and the government is asked to put back the hot air at taxpayer's expense, to keep the billionaires afloat, who alas, are being reduced to millionaires. They do not pay their proportionate share of taxes, because their profits come from investments. Blaming short selling, does not eliminate the lack of confidence in the financial institutions, for selling worthless derivative instruments, to enhance their bottom line.

huffy Sep 22nd 2008 12:05PM

shallie, you are 100% right the super rich only care about themselves

b Sep 22nd 2008 12:05PM

I think you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone who feels bad for a chump like this. Is there anything the rest of us can do to incourage that this kind of thing happens more often to these people......?

porter Sep 22nd 2008 12:04PM

OSTER I totaly agree with you, the Caymans are the PIT'S . NEVER for me . Why does PAMM advertise so strong if it it so good there? why not keep the secret to herself? why? NEED the MONEY from the stupid newcommers. All you do is EAT there, so boring.

werste Sep 22nd 2008 12:08PM

There is not ONE human beeing called middle class in america who has any bad feelings for these rich animals. I hope this house stays on the market for 20 years, just like Joe Blow who is stuck with it, thanks to THEM.

Mindy Sep 22nd 2008 12:10PM

Is it any wonder why these institutions are in trouble?

Momof2Meemawof3 Sep 22nd 2008 12:34PM

And I am going to have to pay to bail him out? I only WISH I had 1/8th of the space to live in.... What is he going to move into now?? A 4 acre home with an inground heated pool with brick patio and attached 2 car garage. With only five bedrooms, five baths, 2 formal dining and living rooms, a walnut-paneled den, and a kitchen that that is gourmet instead of basic with an impressively large range???? I wish.

MaryLou Michelin Sep 22nd 2008 12:51PM

What a beautiful home. Why are the commoners like me, always so hateful of those that have made it big?

afprince Sep 22nd 2008 12:53PM

Why is AOL essentially giving this home on the market free global advertising?

Pricilla Pink Sep 22nd 2008 1:00PM

Let's face it none of the mentioned above McCain, Obama, CEO's or over payed actors and sports stars understand what the average joe goes through to make it. Of course this is just a second or third home for this guy. We can't and shouldn't rely on any politician to save us from our troubles or even think that they will. They will always take care of themselves and their own. We have to take care of ourselves. Economize and live simple. Stop buying overpriced homes and over sized SUV's. When we stop making the rich even richer maybe they might have to lower the price a little bit but until then they will suck the blood out of the sufferers such as a great man once said.

People we cab trace back the problems were in to the failure of FANNIE MAE and FREDDIE MAC. THIS WAS SET UP BY THE LIBERALS IN CONGRESS, FOLKS LIKE REP BARNEY FRANK AND SENTAOR SHUMMER. THESE FOLKS WERE TELLING US WE NEED TO DO AWAY WITH HAVING MONEY DOWN, GETTING A CREDIT CHECK. THEY WANTED FOLKS WHO HAD NO BUSINESS GETTING LOANS, BUT THEY HAD TO PAY BACK THEIR LIBERIAL FRIENDS. THEY PUSHED THROUGH THESE THINGS DURING THE CLINTON ADMINSTRATION. ONCE CLINTON GOT OUT OF OFFICE, PEOPLE LIKE FRANKLIN RAINES WENT FROM 150k FOR A SALARY AND STARTED MAKING MILLIONS OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS, AFTER GETTING CAUGHT IN FRAUD AT THE AGENCY HE HAD TO PAY BACK 24 MILLION. OTHER CRONIES OF THE DEMOCRATS ALSO GOT RICH. NOW WERE SUPPOSE TO FEEL SORRY FOR ANTHONY PISZIEL BECAUSE HE CAN'T GET RID OF HIS 4.6 MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE IN EASTON, MARYLAND. WE NEED TO CLEAN HOUSE OF THESE LIBERAL DEMOCRATS WHO CAUSED THIS PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.

So it goes Sep 22nd 2008 6:43PM

My home wont bring any more than 2.4 to 2.6 million. I always find it hard to believe someone lives in a home more expensive than mine.

So it goes.

I think it's great that some of the gangsters behind the finance problem are liquidating their holdings for future lawsuits. While they are at it they should recommend the same to the people they made pay-offs to. Namely Dodd, Clinton, Kerry, Obama, Biden...they should have the cash to pay back the government that is not tied to election funds. Bye, bye corrupt politicians.
