Assume that securitization combined with borrowing and irrational exuberance in Hyperville have driven up the value of asset-backed
financial securities at a geometric rate, specifically from $2 to $4 to $8 to $16 to $32 to $64 over a six-year time period. Over the same
period, the value of the assets underlying the securities rose at an arithmetic rate from $2 to $3 to $4 to $5 to $6 to $7.
