'So would you if you had not worked for 1.8 years, thanks to the subprime fiasco'

I've never seen such a poor victim in my whole life. I once had a similar instance but luckily I was able to jump out of the way before the subprime fiasco could hit me. Had I been just a second slower I would have been like you, laid up in a hospital bed, all afflicted with broken bones for 1.8 years.

But really, who measures years in tenths?
