What To Do When Your Bank Goes Under

Normally I would write something witty.

A quick quip about what I ate or how stupid something is.

But, I have bad news.

My money was tied up with Lehman Brothers and now I don’t know what to do.

As I am not sure if my 5 investments are safe, I don’t really feel like being funny.

Now, I am not a rich man, I didn’t have much invested with Lehman, but still it hurts.

I will have to start cutting back.

So, here is my list of What to do when your bank goes under:

Start drinking Shasta and start eating Ramen.

Lets say that you drink 2 sodas a day.

That’s 3 bucks a day, 1,000 dollars a year.

If you switch to Shasta, you will save 1,000 dollars a year since you cannot find Shasta cola anywhere!

The Ramen thing is self explanatory.

Now, as you may have already guessed, I did not lose my money this weekend.

I was way too smart to invest with Lehman Brothers.

I knew better.

Brothers always fight and make bad decisions.

Like me and my brothers.

We had a baseball card collection and I decided to sell our expensive baseball cards in order to form teh world greatest “non-sport” collection.

Anyway, so I got rid of the Cal Ripken rookie and bought tons of Garbage Pail kids and Smurf cards.

I think they wanted to kill me.

The point is, that as with any brothers one of the Lehman brothers wanted to go “non – sport” which in this case was government backed mortgage securities.

Whoops.

I still love my brothers though.

Always will.

As for me, my money is safe.

I use a bank.

They never fail right?
