Banks Crashing... What About My Credit Cards

So, I read online today that Washington Mutual was purchased by J.P. Morgan Chase for $1.9 billion because they weren't able to "safely transact business" (the 13th such financial institution to do that this year). MSN.com says it's the largest financial failure in U.S. history.

I say, "Does that mean that I don't have to pay my credit card to Washington Mutual?" If you're looking for something else to peruse while you're online paying your credit card bills, check out the other daily blogs in the "What..." family:

• What Was I Watching?" has a sneak preview of this week's movie premieres, and they're doing it Quote of the Day style.
• "What Was I Reading?" has the book review for City of Ashes up for you to read.
• "What Was I Listening To?" discusses the Clay Aiken homosexuality "scandal."
