- cowboy77061, on 08/08/2008, -9/+100Johannsen has some good ***** on her.
- GhostWithToast, on 08/08/2008, -1/+76Is Digg using the Cuil picture engine?
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -2/+48They should be charged an over draft fee of 39$ for every single security they illegally sold.
I say that would be fair. - jstohler, on 08/08/2008, -5/+48How, exactly, is the bank screwed? According to the article: "Citigroup Inc. said it reached a settlement with the New York Attorney General and regulators to repurchase $7 billion in auction-rate securities and pay $100 million in fines." So, the bank pays a fine worth about a day's profit and moves on.
- BXRWXR, on 08/08/2008, -2/+42Pic unrelated...
- GVR90, on 08/08/2008, -8/+43dugg for picture
- santaliqueur, on 08/08/2008, -9/+36On Digg, everything is a catastrophe. America is screwed, we are all going to lose our jobs tomorrow, the dollar is going to plummet to nothing. Any day now.
- thelimsh, on 08/08/2008, -2/+28BoA is so screwed that its share price is down a staggering 3 percent from Wednesday's close, is up over 3% today, and is trading about even to Monday's closing price.
Once again, Huffington Post readers demonstrate their ability to read news articles, profoundly misunderstand the material, and somehow use their ignorance to further their left-wing agenda. As sad as that may be, what's truly lamentable is that people actually take them seriously. - kierucom, on 08/08/2008, -8/+34Buried for overly-sensational title.
- xerograde, on 08/08/2008, -7/+32Submitter is sooo stupid.
- kmb1794, on 08/08/2008, -3/+26hi res please?
- santaliqueur, on 08/08/2008, -1/+22It might be dangerous if Diggers had more than $30 in the bank.
- pakakapa, on 08/08/2008, -11/+30fap fap fap
- smurf22, on 08/08/2008, -2/+18Can we please go back to using actually article titles instead of this gossip magazine crap? "Bank of America is Sooo Screwed" how about "Bank Of America Subpoenaed Over Sale Of Securities" Maybe it's just me but that sounds like a more accurate title.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -4/+20Why the buries Digg? Are Diggers Anti-*****? Say it ain't so.
***** or gtfo. - erichw1504, on 08/08/2008, -2/+18Title should have been: Scarlett Johansson Is Sooo Hot
- john2kx, on 08/08/2008, -2/+17Agreed.. I would ferociously tap that ass.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -2/+16You should hate yourself for not being able to manage your finances better.
- Typhoon2009, on 08/08/2008, -1/+14***** ***** ***** ***** ***** I just opened an account there yesterday!!!
Wait, nevermind, read the first two comments. Stop with the sensationalist *****; you're scaring people. - jd7seven, on 08/08/2008, -1/+14Don't forget about the meteors
- FutureGuy, on 08/08/2008, -0/+11Nothing to do with financials, didn't you see the thumb? BoA is having an affair with Scarlett Johannsen.
- gaqua, on 08/08/2008, -2/+13Must be tough for such a small girl to carry them around all day. I wonder if she'd like some help.
- kraftj, on 08/08/2008, -4/+12buried as retarded.
- NCg8r, on 08/08/2008, -0/+8Plus fees that are the result of being negative because of the fees they applied. BoA violates Newton's laws with this little piece of "business".
- ferrariman60, on 08/08/2008, -0/+7No. You didn't, and I think you're overreacting. And over estimating the size of the digg user base. You'd have to be a digg user, bank at BofA, and run and withdraw all your cash for your thing to come true. That is not a large group of people, man. And ever heard of the FDIC?
- revjustin2, on 08/08/2008, -0/+7Or the munchkins.
- Erythroxylum, on 08/08/2008, -1/+8I think that's something we can all agree on.
- Sucka27, on 08/08/2008, -0/+72 in the bank 1 in the stank.
- Badandy127, on 08/08/2008, -1/+7It seems like Huffington Post is almost happy about this...
What a pathetic site. - sleepingcitizen, on 08/08/2008, -1/+7why are you withdrawing your funds? this article means little to nothing. you think the entire bank will collapse because of this??? bahahaa. and there wont be enough idiots like you withdrawing all of their money because they misunderstand an article.
- drmangrum, on 08/08/2008, -0/+6You knew about the overdraft fees when you created the account?
You failed to keep money in that account?
You didn't have enough money, but they allowed to you make the transaction?
You bought something you couldn't afford?
How is this their fault? - diggduggDOOM, on 08/08/2008, -1/+7It's an AP story.
- aklu, on 08/08/2008, -0/+6No. Your loan will be sold to another institution, and you'll have to continue making payments to them.
If you think you're bank is going under, call them and try to settle your loan before the ***** hits the fan. If you have the cash, you can probably settle for alot less than the full amount, especially if they need capital. - leetninja, on 08/08/2008, -1/+7so judging from the (inaccurate) title and picture combination ... Bank of America slept with Scarlett Johannsen!?
- pushmouse, on 08/08/2008, -0/+6and close to earth rainbows.
- rhabd0mancer, on 08/08/2008, -1/+6The settlement was with NY. Now it's the fed's turn.
- chrissku, on 08/08/2008, -1/+6I'd say we're all screwed if this bank crisis is gets as bad as some people think it's going too.
- aklu, on 08/08/2008, -0/+5A simple phone call could have probably avoided the issue. It's crazy how willing people are to work with you as long as you're up front and honest.
Seriously, think about what you said. You're the problem, not the bank. Did you read the papers you signed when you opened your account? - Ellrick, on 08/08/2008, -1/+6But I clicked the picture, and it didnt get bigger :(
It just redirected me to some boring article about ugly people :( - Armageddon85, on 08/08/2008, -0/+5the $39 deal, i got 5 of those one time. WTF just deny the purchase.
- JCH897, on 08/08/2008, -1/+6Read the end of the article.
I'd say now is a better time than any to buy some shares. - GhostFreeman, on 08/08/2008, -0/+5This is the exact reason I gave up on AlterNet.
- jbarr08, on 08/08/2008, -0/+5This is the exact reason the FDIC was created. As long as you don't have over $100K in your account (doubt you do), all of your deposits are federally insured and you won't lose a dime in the unlikely event BofA defaults.
- ausfahrt, on 08/08/2008, -0/+4Why reply to that comment. Start a new comment thread.
- 5xSTUN, on 08/08/2008, -1/+5So long as we don't have to listen to her CD.
- nebben, on 08/08/2008, -0/+4It looks more like Christina Applegate...
- aigulf, on 08/08/2008, -1/+5it's also the only reason this thing has gotten to the FP.
- DangerCollie, on 08/08/2008, -1/+4Maybe you missed that little credit crisis thing that started a couple years ago. Some of these banks were on the edge before this came along.
It's another 7 Billion on top of the write-downs on mortgage instruments. Could be enough to push them over the edge. There had to be jail time involved in this somewhere for them to take a deal like that at a time like this. Jail or bankruptcy? Hmmmmm.
Or maybe it was worth $7 Bil to keep the state from doing discovery. It would be really interesting to learn what secrets were worth that much. - Rizzler, on 08/08/2008, -2/+5Scarlett is incredible. The tone of her skin makes my heart beat quicken. The look of her eyes catches mine for hours. The color of her hair, and the way she smiles brings me to the edge of my basement's computer chair wanting more. The succulent features of her body makes me fap the night away.
The pic is the only reason I clicked on the title. Related, 100%. -
