810 | Millions Of Americans Skipping Payments As Tidal Wave Of Defaults And Evictions Looms, June 3, 2020

Americans are skipping payments on mortgages, auto loans and other bills. Normally, that could mean massive foreclosures, evictions, cars repossessions and people's credit getting destroyed. But much of that's been put on pause.

Help from Congress and leniency from lenders have kept impending financial disaster at bay for millions of people. But that may not last for long.
