Yes. Unless you are a rich person with over $100K in the bank, your savings are FDIC insured. |

The government keeps all my extra money for me. The IRS calls it taxes. Local government takes the rest as "rent" and calls it property taxes. Nobody really owns anything in America. The banks and government own it all, the homes, the cars. And for the few that do have their home or car paid off, you still have to rent the land it sits on in the form of "property taxes." What they cannot suck up in taxes and interest and finance charges, they hold for you and use it to lure other people into debt. And if they run out of money to lure other people into debt, the government just orders more to be printed and they call it a "bailout.". It would take decades to sort out the government we have that is also owned by world bankers. It's just quicker to fall into socialism. Have you noticed anybody that has anything now or who is successful gets attacked? It's unfashionable to be successful or prosperous, even unpatriotic. We are governed by the banks now. They own it all and rent it to me, even my land. |

I keep a few months living costs in the bank, but split between 3 banks so that should one go under, I do not have to wait until the government insurance payout to pay my house taxes, or eat.
A friend was holding all liquid assets in one bank that went under and was waiting 16 months to get the last of her money. She had most of it after 9 months.
I am somewhat more concerned about the money I paid to own part of a bank. That could be more at risk. |

I'm 15. I currently have like, maybe 100 dollars in my bank account, if even that. So that is really nothing. I have 60 dollars in my wallet currently, so I would say being my text-a-holic/shop-a-holic self, no. |

Yes, all i do is keep it seperated between a lot of banks so that if 1 goes out, it doesn't take all my money with it!

Yup.
Keeping it at home is an invitation for disaster, and pulling it out of the bank - if everyone goes nuts and does it at the same time, will cause so much instability that we will bring about the very thing we hope to avoid.
Panic = bad decisions = disaster. |

Don't let anyone tell you that the crash of 1929 was caused by people who took their money out of the bank. Good grief!! The government tightened the money supply at the precise moment they should have flooded the economy with cash. Suddenly, there was no cash for anyone. That's why people freaked out and tried to get their money out of the bank before it was too late. The government caused the crash, not the people.
There is nothing wrong with holding a little cash outside of the bank. Don't listen to anyone who tells you it is not okay. Of course it is okay. It's better than okay. It's a prudent thing to do. |

I don't have a have over 250k in bank, so I'm insured through FDIC (just went up from 100k) and the bank is the place to be. I wish the same was true for my 401k. |

Yes, remember that your money if federally insured by the FDIC, most of the time up to $100,000. So if you are worried about a bank run/collapse, make sure your account(s) don't exceed the insured limit. |
