Would There Be Enough Money In Fdic To Pay Everyone Who Lost Their Life Savings In A Total Banking Colapse?

If Obama let all the banks fail there would be a complete panic and Everyone would try to get their money out. So ,saving the banks was bad because they were managed poorly, and greedy? Obama should have let them all close their doors, right? Sounds like a pretty bad idea to me.

    Except all the banks were not failing, just the ones that let the Dems convince them to give poor people mortgages they could not afford.
    Is this Lib propaganda night at Y!A?

    There would not be enough money in the fund in the event of a total collapse. Government would have to cover it same as when FDIC was started. Obama wants sane sensible banking regulations. Cannot imagine having better person to get what is need. He has educational background and Grandmother he live with a long time was a bank manager. Wonder if they had some very interesting conversation on the phone about 80′s S&L ripoff. They should have genetic ID of every failed or taken over banks top officers and management and ban them from financial industry for life. To keep banks honest some have to fail especially all for reasons you stated.

    Just remember this.The FDIC tell you know one has every lost one penny when their money was insured by a government agency.That is if it was with-in the limits set by them.That said,if there was a total collapse of our banking system you would receive your savings,but they don’t say when.

    The Federal government is not financially sound. they can print off money! Trillions in debt now! Do you think our bank accounts would be high priority to them when the entire monetary system is collapsing? Best faith to have is in yourself and how you prepare for your future.
    Printing money is not smart.

    Of course. Obama would just print more T Bills and sell them to China, just like he funds all his programs. Why didn’t the Rebublicans think of that?

    if there is not enough money in FDIC, Federal government would give FDIC a loan to pay us.

  • Thinking of investing your savings?


    While increasing your savings is good, multiplying your money through smart investments feels great - there are lots of opportunities out there and you can be successful if you're arming yourself with the right information.

    Where to start?

    If you're going to try your luck on the stock market or trading options, first start by learning the basics and delay as much as possible buying real positions. One way of getting hands-on experience with the markets is through online trading - either forex or binary options are good learning grounds and most online brokers offer trial accounts free of charge (if you're wondering what are binary options, 24option.com has very good resources on it, besides offering a free practice account and a wealth of information about binary trading in general). Final warning for the very eager: binary options are exotic financial instruments; real trading involves substantial risk of monetary loss.
