Is this a sign the banks are getting ready to close down ?

    I have a Loan with Wells Fargo and each month they remove $ 100.00 from my social security direct deposit BUT this month the decided to take the whole $322.00 I had left to pay on the loan. After talking to two diffirent bankers I have been told that the kind of loan I had can come due anytime they want. WTH does that mean. I stayed with Wells because since the were convicted of money laundering and sold their stock in BP before the oil disaster they would have advance notice of the economic crash. It sure seems to me something is up for the to call a loan due before its time. Just a heads up to watch your bank.

About a year ago Wells lost a court case brought by thousands of customers. The bank was holding back debit card transactions and people would think they had already gone through, then when they saw that your account was close enough to be over drawn they posted the held back transactions to bounce your account then a $ 75  charge was applied and $5 a day until your fine was paid. This affected mostly people on fixed incomes. There was another trick and that was saying the computers were slow on the weekend and and thats why you were allowed to over draw your account. I met a girl that quit working for Wells in Reno and had a nervous breakdown  while ripping off seniors that were not abe to always balance their checking accounts. Of cource Wells appealed their court loss and will likely get away with it.

Here's a theory:  When the price of the dollar rises, the stock market is crap.  While the stock market is crap, the downgrades don't affect the major banks.  BUT, if the stock market regains it footing? The major banks will lose money which is something they do not want! They want to make money!  Soooooo, doesn't it stand to reason that the major banks want the market to crash so they can continue to make money?

For quite some time we have heard that the economy has been propped up so that the house of cards all comes down at once. Even the countries we hear little about are suffering. The timeing seems close. Even though Bob Chatman and many others said it was going to happen june of 2011. Drake says to have silver coins to use as cash and if you need change the store or gas station can give you an IOU. A silver dime would be worth 18 times its value $1.80  all depending on the value of silver. Paper money may just be useless.

Tammy and Norad my neighbor hood is like that all the time! Half the block is retired.  Many people jog or just walk.  I talk to neighbors several blocks away as we sit on the poarch or back yards.  Last summer I stoped to talk to my neighbor a few houses away and everyone who came by stayed to talk.  There was about ten of us, with our dogs!  Yes I plan to stay here with my wonderful neighbors to talk to. 

We went shopping to day and I noticed that the prices just keep going up!  So you will need a LOT of cash on hand when the shtf.  I suspect that by the second day prices will skyrocket.  So best to get what you need on the first day of any problem.  I know that we here should be better off then most when it comes to supplies, but you never realy have everything you need.  We just have to keep a close watch on the banks over seas and Cheryl does a good job of that!

I am used to hurricanes hitting.  After the hurricane is over everyone gets together and helps.  Whether that means a tree to cut out of the road or off a house to just sitting and talking.  It is really nice and personally I wished it would last forever.  :)

About 20 years ago we had a three day blackout due to a storm.  Everyone stayed home and BBQed.  It was just like camping since it was summer. I heard no one complane!  The first day everyone cut up the fallen trees.  The city collected all the wood the next day and the high school had a very large bon fire!!   It seemed that every other house has a chain saw.  Stores and gas stations were closed.  Point is that if you just make the best of your situation life is easy!  It was a bad situation, but everyone had a relaxing time with out hussel and bussel.

I don't trust Wells Fargo as far as I can throw a rock. That is one of the worst financial organizations I have EVER dealt with. We use to bank with BOA --- for bookoo years ---- finally pulled all out and put in a local... now, as so many others have done so, too, it is growing financially and I'm becoming concerned about the local bank's demise. We have pulled as much out as we feel is safe to keep with us or on our property. A flood could cover our short stash. What to do and when ---- always the ultimate worry point.

You can't trust bankers.  When the SHTF it will be swift.  Suddenly you will have no money in the bank.  So like the preppers say keep as much cash as you can.  Even then it will be good for only a short time.   So best thing to do is to stock your pantry.  It seems to me that the biggest problem that we now face is the collaps of the economy.  When that happens everything will end.  No medication, no mail, no food, and probably no electric power, etc.  Next will be the war.  Then the earth quakes and storms. Then the pole shift.    So we have to prepare as it comes.  One thing at a time.
