I saw a horrible documentary about people in Iceland, some of whom had taken out loans in foreign currencies. When the krona collapsed, their loans doubled.

Some of those people have lost everything. There were some really sad stories of people living in caravans and some people who had killed themselves. Its really sad and kind of brings it all home especially when some large western governments are struggling right now.
