Actually, I get quite argry when I think of how Greenspan lowered rates. Bubbling and boinking Real Estate. Screwed savers. Now they can't raise rates. Meanwhile people are forced to eek out any little bit of interest at a federal bank at the same time unknowingly placing their money in danger. For a lousy 3%

Those behind all this need jail time.

I have been looking at my bank a lot lately. I have most of my money at USAA Federal Savings bank, which as far as I can tell is in pretty good shape.

Does anyone know if the FDIC $100K limit applies to accounts in different names? I have an individual account, and a family trust account with my wife and I as trustees, and I wonder if they are separately insured.
