<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 594102, member: 13650&quot;]I&#039;m half tempted to use this post as a sig line.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I completely agree.&nbsp; I think some people are way too trusting of banks and the whole system.&nbsp; You hit the nail on the head.&nbsp;&nbsp; Whether you&#039;re paranoid or not, everyone should realize that you don&#039;t get a letter in the mail or a phone call warning you in advance of ANY type of crisis.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;Especially if it involves you losing your money while the government or someone else takes it.&nbsp;&nbsp; If they warned you, they wouldn&#039;t be able to take it!&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp; Whether it be a bank failure, a devaluation of the dollar for a new world currency, or complete government take over (for the *good*, worthy reason of obtaining tangible assets to keep the country going so everyone&#039;s on board of course! a.k.a. national emergency).&nbsp; &nbsp; Don&#039;t expect a warning.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Look at the bank stress tests.&nbsp; People can be mad about it or just blow it off.&nbsp; But they&#039;re kept a secret so people don&#039;t panic, despite the fact that many may have real, severe underlying problems putting people at risk.&nbsp;&nbsp; They don&#039;t care!!</p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp; To rub it in, you have to pay them money to keep your valuables in their possession.&nbsp; I guess as long as the government remains friendly and there is no crisis, there&#039;s not a thing to worry about.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I read somewhere that in case of national emergency which could be anything from a terrorist attack to an astroid strike, that the fed. govt can confiscate any property for their own use to provide &quot;emergency assistance&quot;.&nbsp; &nbsp; At the rate they&#039;re going in debt, safety deposit boxes could be easy pickings some day if they decide they need it.&nbsp; And what&#039;s anybody going to do about it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
