Twenty or 30 years ago, if a bank in North America lent too much money to some people who couldn't afford to pay it back and the bank went bust, that was bad for the lender and bad for the borrower, but we didn't imagine it would bring the global economic system to its knees for nearly a decade.
Prije 20 ili 30 godina, ako je banka  u Sjevernoj Americi dala preveliki kredit nekome tko ga nije mogao otplatiti i banka je propala, to je bilo loše za banku i klijenta, no, nismo pomišljali da će to izazvati krah globalnog gospodarskog sustava za skoro čitavo desetljeće.
