It seems like a bad example, though. Most of the neighborhoods around here with that sort of pricing for that size house didn’t drop much, if any, during the real estate crash. It felt like a very distant problem here. I lived in a similarl

I use both OVH and AWS extensively, and have done so for quite a while. OVH is actually quite popular; they're big enough to have their own TLD, which says something about the quantity of money they have just sitting around. There are
