If you ever plan to get money out of the bank, you better do it now,
while the getting is good. In a bank run, the federal government
(guardian angel and loyal slave of the banks) would most certainly
declare a moratorium on withdrawals.

More and more people are hearing the recommendation to "withdraw a
little extra cash out of the banks" to prepare for cyber attacks. If
as many as 1.32% of bank depositors take their advice and withdraw all
their money, the banks will close their doors.

Al Qaeda threatens to disrupt the electronic bank payments system.
This system contributes about 90% of the US money supply. Without it,
10% of the money supply (the cash & coin) must take over the work of
the other 90%.

Conclusion: Withdraw and stockpile some cash now. Shoot for at least
three months' cash requirements. Don't wait. Start now.
