Life after your bank fails

I don't normally double-dip and recycle my work writing on the blog, but right now the subjects I would have been covering here are being covered there, so I'm going to be lazy and link the piece I spent Friday pulling together: "Life after your bank fails"

Amusing factoid I couldn't fit into the already-long story: Chris Coulthrust, who had all of his business' funds at NetBank when it crashed, shares my deathtouch with banks. Like me, he left ING after it bought NetBank ... and moved his personal accounts to WaMu. We'll have to coordinate on what bank we want to kill off next.
