can you shed some light how did it all happen? I know there was the global meltdown (the crazy housing market - loans - with their different dodgy "products" for sale...but Greece had huge housing boom (all UK retirees were buying villas with a view)...but where did ALL their money go? surely not everything got lost on share markets?? ...do you have any links to stories with all the details?...
