Thanks for re-playing the FDIC post. There’s good information there that I don’t think most people know. As an ex-banker, I know that rarely banks do fail (not the one I worked for !) , and, you need to know that your various FDIC insured accounts don’t exceed the insurance limits. Thank you for the responsible manner that you presented that information in.
