So I went to my local citibank branch to deposit my $100 pay check (thats righ baby, $100, read it and weep) and there was like 3 people in line in front of me to get to the teller. I promptly withdrawed all $400 of my money at Citibank as obviously they are about to go under. I am contemplating burying the money in my backyard and then creating a secret treasure map that I will keep underneath my pillow. Anyone have any suggestions on the best way to create a pirate like treasure map? What about where to buy high quality booby traps to guard said money (under $400 would be best)? I looked through hot deals but did not see any booby trap deals.

Is this a joke? The FDIC will guarantee any amount up to $100K, and the US government will NOT let the FDIC fail. (It's way too big and important to go under.) I keep about $5K in various bills in my house, but that's only because I'm paranoid (and it really helped out during 9/11 when ATMs were blinking in and out and it really felt like the world was ending).
Wow, this is getting bad. I went to BoA at 4AM and got in line so I could clear out my $32.14 in savings. No one else got in line until after they opened, I guess since they saw me and knew I would clean BoA out so they didn't bother. It is really getting bad out there.

Better not let Dolmar hear his favorite too large to fail CitiBank go under or he might have a heart attack. LOL
Can you guys tell me if you find any good deals on booby traps? I need to find some creative solutions for dispatching members . . . err . . . I mean burglars. Yeah. Burglars.
Take all of your USD, covert them to Euros, used said Euros to buy as many barrels of oil as possible and one gun. Bury the oil in your backyard, use the gun if needed to protect your oil.

There was a 1 HOUR long line at Carls jr. today, thats right 1 hour for an american burger at a fastfood joint. Looks like even the low-level workers are being run-in on. So, I decided to withdraw all my cash at the Carls Jr. ATM, pack-up and move to Europe where I can get a real American burger fast.
As of the first quarter of 2008, the FDIC has identified 90 "problem" banks that have the potential to fail. Please call the FDIC at Toll-Free Number: 877-ASKFDIC (877-275-3342) and demand whether your bank is on that list. In this economic condition, it is better to be pro-active in getting your stock or savings out of these 'problem' banks before they go under. Naysayers on this board said that your funds are protected to $100K, but a single bank like Indymac can used up 10 percent of the FDIC's reserve. Don't be left holding the bag after their reserves are all used up and your savings will be held up for weeks, months, or even years. I want my AOR money and I want it NOW.
Did you tap the other 3 people on the shoulder and say "Oh, so you guys heard the news too, huh? I'm gonna get all mine before everyone comes for theirs." Then when they ask what you're talking about, just say "Oh, right. Nothing." Then wink.

Thanks for all the great advice. I did not even realize that there was a burger crisis as well. You fwf people are geniusess. After consulting the psychic reccomended by IrishTomBunny I have decided to spend a quarter of my savings, yes $100, on Burgers. I am not sure whether to bury these with my money or not yet, I fear dogs will soon discover my stash if i bury the burgers. Any news on weather there is also a dog crisis?
