Something just doesn't add up with this headline. Bullet Magnet, would you care to offer some insight into what I'm missing here?

Noticed the same thing too. There's simply no way they are refinancing for $300k.

Oh, now I see what you guys are talking about.

There is a difference between injured and wounded though. Maybe the headline composer is an English major.

No mistake here. The headline composer is simply well-educated.

[sarcasm]See, Bullet Magnet, this is evidence as to why I said college is a waste of time for most people, except for those who somehow think there is something that can still be learned from the writings of morons like Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle ("The Princess Bride" pun fully intended).[/sarcasm]

Thou art correct! Yet, somehow, Zorro manages to make it into the top 10% of personal income earners in the United States. Strange how that happens, isn't it?

Well, you're a computer programmer so that doesn't count. LOL. How many languages do you know, by the way? (I lost your résumé).
