Is it safe to bank anymore?
Where is a safe bet to invest where money will grow steadily & more importantly SAFELY. With the latest round of banking fiascos it seems that those who save get penalised by those that dont!

Save where its FDIC insured.

Well I work for a bank and I believe it is safe to bank. Even with Northern Rock, the government guaranteed customers savings.

You could always go with a global bank like HSBC or Citibank as they are pretty stable and it would take a lot for anything to impact them.

At the end of the day, the alternative is to stuff it under your mattress and there it won't earn any interest and will be at risk if you are burgled or god forbid there is any fire or flood at your home. Also if it's in the bank at least you can access it quickly and easily any time you need to using your card or a cashpoint.

May be worth going into whichever bank you choose and ask to speak to a Financial Planning Manager, they can give you good advice on the best investments depending on the level of return or risk you are looking for.

Some foreign banks are much safer than US domestic banks. The top rated US bank by Forbes Magazine is: www.everbank.com that I have been aware of for many years before it was called that. The bank offers foreign currency dominated Certificates of Deposit.

If one understands higher returns are available in the publicly traded markets as one needs the same kind of patience to hold both types of commercial paper why not make the most of your time and invest in a mutual fund at the very least like the Marketocracy Top 100 Fund.

Most people think CD's are safe! The day will come when paper will not cut it and neither will gold or silver as food will become so valuable people will not trade any form of money for it.

it is safe.

National Savings and Investments is the safest place to put your money. It's 100% guaranteed by the government.

Go here:

http://www.nsandi.com

Or pick up a form at your local post office.

Although they're safe, you generally pay for that through lower interest rates, but, of course, sometimes they can be competitive.

Personally, I'm happy to put my money with banks. My investment strategy is to diversify, so I have money with NS&I, but I also put money in places paying higher interest rates. I get safety and also benefit from good returns.

One of my favourite investments at the moment is Zopa. This is an online lending and borrowing exchange that cuts out the banks and allows you to lend money to individuals with good credit ratings. That way, the banks don't take their fees, so you get good money. And you know that your money is with a number of individuals with good credit ratings, so you know it's not with the banks and is therefore arguably safer! (You don't lend all your money to one person. The money is spread across a number of borrowers, and the borrowers borrow from a number of different investors. This minimises your risk associated with bad debt.)

I've been using Zopa for nearly a year now, and have had no problem with it, and I've been getting great results - 7%-11% compared with a savings account which would pay about 6%.

If you apply via this link:

http://www.zopa.com/member/The%20Hulk

Zopa will give you a complimentary £30 if you lend out more than £500, by way of an introductory offer. I think that's a great offer, Zopa is a great idea, and I highly recommend it! Follow the link and see what you think.

Yes. The modern bank is quite safe. Look at Northern Rock the people who had accounts their were perfectly safe it was the shareholders that were in trouble. The idiots that stood in the rain for hour after hour only fueled the problem. People often confuse normal bank customers with shareholders.

Cherry is right: banking is safe, particularly given the increase in UK government guarantee for savers.

In terms of investment, always understand the nature of investments in which you may invest. If you take advice from third parties, be sceptical, even those who are supposed to be experts. Independent Financial Advisers in banks may simply be agents, obtaining a commission on investments in offerings by third-party institutions. It would be a good idea to learn about investment. Motley Fool is pretty good, as is Finysis.net. I have bought a couple of the latter's e-books and they are great value, providing in-depth knowledge. Their free Investment Course also provides some good basic advice.


Just Thinking...
This whole 'scam' was created by and FOR the banking system!
What I mean....
Who gets to raise interest rates on credit cards to outf*ckingragious limits when your credit is screwed?
ANSWER:
!The banks that own the credit card accounts that they gave you or better yet the person that SAID they were you and screwed your credit and your life up by stealing your Identy!!!

Who profits from all the scams? not the consumer because they (the banks and their vultures) will drag you through the court system and hound you with their 'creditors' and collection agencies until you're on the verge of suicide!! and they are the ones that are ultimately responsible for the 'theft' in the first place because someone has gone through your garbage and pulled out one of their lovely solicitations!!!

This is a conspiracy being perpatrated on the American people by the 'Powers That Be' in an attempt at more control over the public and their lifestyle.

It's always about money and power over the person that doesn't have as much, and how they can be exploited.
*** ???
If you think ENRON was a shameful scam just wait till the lid blows off this sucker. The RATS will be in the multitudes!!!
