I noticed the web site advertising Ms. Smith’s upcoming book on housing had a bunch of endorsements from various “experts”. One was a senior director of Bear Stearns. Now there’s winning guy to have on your side!March 17, 2008 at 8:41 PM #172328ParticipantBobS

ParticipantRich, I just sent the good Dr an email. This beauty in his bio: Ph.D. in Economics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Dissertation title: “The Effect of Tax Reform on the Owner-Occupied Housing Market”.
Here's my email to him today: (bet he doesnt reply)Hello Professor Sinai, It appears there are myths being posted online that Bear Stearns geniuses used papers like yours to ignore all risks. Obviously, you empathically warned against betting for the sky. And obviously you had no idea that there was rampant fraud in CA and FL and that Bear Stearns execs were ignoring all due diligence as posted in the LA Times: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-subprime17mar17,0,782997.story
Do you have any recent commentary on this matter? Thanks,

ParticipantI never gave much thought (one way or the other) about these economics professor types until this bubble started really bursting. It now seems like the majority of data that many of them bestowed upon us before the burst was the biggest bunch of hog crap that ever filled a pig farm. How do colleges and universities justify paying these people when many average citizens could see something that their genius type professors couldn’t? Pretty sad!
