Federal Regulators usually close or seize banks on Fridays, late in the day. Are we going to have more of them today? Uncle Nasty

Nasty, get a credit card from a Bank, the rates will give you a "seizure!" They give you 0.50% on your savings then put out credit cards @ 13-19%! Wow! What a "spread!" I know guys in East Boston who don't charge that much on the "vig!" Is it "Bank Robbers" or "Bank's Robbers?"

And when caught with their hand in the cookie jar, run and hide behind their high price attorneys. If convicted, they usually get the minimum security pens. I would like to see them on a chain gang.

I had a feeling there would be at least one. And I found one. Link to article on CNNMoney.com http://money.cnn.com/2008/08/01/news/companies/FDIC_bank_closure/?postversion=2008080118 Uncle Nasty

It seems I get 2.5% interest on mortgage [tax and ins] look into that, it also makes no sense to pay off a 5.5% or 6% mortgage- since money is worht less each year. figure 12 %- not the official numbers.....
