Witch Vibe

Sep 30, 2008 21:39

Last week amid the failing of WaMu and various other markers of widespread fear of financial downfall, I thought aloud to friends, "I wonder when my bank is going to go under?"

Well, witch vibe, it happened.  I guess now I'm a Citi Group customer?

I mean, acquisitions happen all the time, and hopefully now these huge companies are so big that they cannot fail, and I know it's better to have one company buy another than to have one company sit by while the other company tanks, but it's easy to get caught up in the fear when that's all you hear.

Believe me, my meager sum of money in Wachovia/Citi Group is not much compared to the billions of dollars out there to be lost, but it's all I have.

Here's hoping that optimism gets the best of fear.
