**sandman!** · 09-14-2008, 09:29 PM

they suck ass

one of the worst banks i ever tried to use.

i wont miss them.

**UniversalPassLorence** · 09-14-2008, 09:32 PM

It will be probably taken over by another bank. They have a big customer base.

**baddog** · 09-14-2008, 09:36 PM

I could have sworn my rep there sent me a notice that someone else was taking over the home loans. But I haven't been told to pay someone else yet.

**Official Babe** · 09-14-2008, 09:44 PM

stock price is low but i would stay away from it

**LiveDose** · 09-14-2008, 09:46 PM

We have one of our mortgages with them. No problems at all for us but I have heard of people having problems with them.

Buy gold Dave. Buy gold.

The American bank system is actually collapsing.

**WWC** · 09-15-2008, 01:54 AM

Damn, I told them to give you my address Lloyd... Don't worry, just epass it to me this month, and you won't lose your house.

**gleem** · 09-15-2008, 08:25 AM

that could collapse ANY bank since banks just hold a small amount as a reserve and never all

stocks are the best investment there is... better than real estate, land, etc...

yeah.. wamu has been going down in flames for awhile now

**Vendot** · 09-15-2008, 09:32 AM

What about Goldman Sachs..... GS EPS is like $20 per share.

If you pick it up at $120 tommorrow after they release crap earnings you can get 16%/pa in dividends.

**ADL Colin** · 09-15-2008, 09:37 AM

Quite possible.

**seeric** · 09-15-2008, 09:43 AM

looks like the only one i am putting faith in right now is BOFA

yep, Goldman's a blue chipper pickup, especially if you can get it at 120.. hell, I'd buy at 130-135 even

No BofA's here in Denver. I had to close my 3 accounts with them when I moved here.

**sweetredhead** · 09-15-2008, 09:58 AM

WAMU sucks balls, they are awful, all hidden fees, they will for sure go down the with the rest

Same here, bought and sold it a couple of times, then got hooked at $12.00 and it just kept going down.

Hope it comes back up.

I'm waiting it out. Currently everything I own of GS, is profits... Just hate to see it dwindle down to nothing.

**Trax** · 09-15-2008, 11:41 AM

WAMU HAS! problems
if another bank is to bit the dust... WAMU is the next big one to go

Goldman Sachs hit $116 earlier...... looks like it will dive under $120 again at some point today but could (possibly) go lower tommorrow. Todays downward pressure was due to poor results (although nowhere near as bad as expected).

I picked up a few under $120 but im holding out for a larger hopeful sub $100 purchase in the next week or so.

**Kudles** · 09-16-2008, 09:50 AM

Who knows?

**Vendot** · 09-17-2008, 08:36 AM

Goldman Sachs currently trading at $98/share under serious selling pressure for no particular reason other than loss of confidence...... Yielding dividend $21/share

You can make 20% annual returns if Goldman doesnt change its dividend (which it didnt do at the last meeting).

**PetMyKitty** · 09-17-2008, 09:09 AM

I heard Wachovia is not in great shape either.

**fuzebox** · 09-17-2008, 09:16 AM

Am I the only one who's had great experiences with WaMu? They've been great for me over the last year and a half... I hope they pull through

They have been great for me, they cash my Canadian checks with no hassle. When I read about the devalue in their stock , moved most of mt money elsewhere. I'll still use them to cash my Canadian checks though.
