ETA: I dont know how they could have collapsed with all the overdraft fees they've charged me this year, lol. I suck at checking accounts.

 

LOL...come on...you didn't have over $100,000 in there to really worry about the FDIC insurance? :wacko:

Wamu didn't collapse, JPMorgan bought it. If you had an account at Wamu you now have the same account, number, balance, agreement with JPMorgan.

 

 

it failed. then jpm bought the assets from the usg.

 

The market was also tense after Washington Mutual Inc. became the largest U.S. bank to fail. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. seized WaMu on Thursday and then sold the thrift's banking assets to JPMorgan Chase & Co. for $1.9 billion. It was the largest bank by far to fail in U.S. history and the latest financial firm to collapse under the weight of enormous bad bets on the mortgage market.
