    Marketplace Money for Friday, September 14, 2012

    A year ago, Occupy Wall Street began in New York’s Zuccotti Park and spread to cities all across the U.S. You couldn’t miss hearing about the 99 percent versus the 1 percent on Twitter, Facebook, TV, and the radio. But on the movement’s one-year anniversary we ask the question: Did protesters succeed? In fact, banks are still giving money to people who can’t afford to pay it back. We’re not talking home mortgages here; this time it’s car loans. Plus, we talk with two newlyweds and their Rabbi about personal finance. It’s the latest in our series on religion and money.
