I have a question re: Bank of America. Could someone enlighten
me possibly?

I am hearing their name quite often in the news. I am 64 years old, and I don't understand everything I hear in our newscasts here in USA. I am not stupid....just can't seem to keep up with what everything means. I know I'm not alone.

Is there a threat of BOA going out of business? I bank I another bank also, but Im just wondering if someone might clue me in to what is going on.

Thanks for your time.

2. I honestly don't think BOA will fail.
However, I am not an expert in the banking business. BOA holds my mortgage, but I am guessing if they do fail, someone else would gladly take it on...LOL

4. Just another stupid bank
that tries to cover up for its mistakes with jacked-up fees on customers and government bailouts.

Avoid them if you can, same goes for all the other mega-institutions, if you have a functional credit union, that's a better place to be for all concerned.
