I wanted to get out a quick note on FDIC insurance.
Effective May 20, 2009, deposits at FDIC-insured institutions will continue to be insured up to $250,000 through December 31, 2013. Previously, the insurance was to expire on December 31, 2009, and revert back to $100,000 after that.
You can check out the details at the FDIC’s website by clicking here.

Nice new pic!
interesting that the new expiration date for extended insurance is one year past the next national election……..probably a coincidence…….
I’m sure, too, that it’s just a coincidence. Our government doesn’t do things like that.
