11. If they make a killing, we will share in that killing
We share in the upside of these assets. And yes, we also take a lot of risk, but less risk than if we went with a full on nationalization.

The problem is that according to Lord God, Maker of Heaven and Earth, Paul Krugman, these assets being discussed here are 100% worthless. So what is it, are they going to make a killing or are they worthless? I have a feeling the answer is somewhere in between. The FDIC is competent and they have good reason to price these assets properly for auction.
