Put Your Money Under Your Mattress$$$

After one of the country's biggest meltdowns on Wall St., my mattress is slowly becoming a safer place for me to stash my cash.

It seems as though Wall Street is crumbling before our eyes.

Now the in day six of this crisis, the feds are doing their part to try and save the market.

Leaders from both the House and the Senate were briefed on Thursday evening by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke.

The announcement is the latest stunning turn in an extraordinary six days that have rocked Wall Street. The crisis toppled two major firms - Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch. It also prompted an $85 billion government loan to stem the sudden collapse of insurance giant American International Group.

Now as people wonder what will happen to years of investing thier hard earned money, one must also wonder, where is our president?

I know his approval rating is next to nothing. However, this is a time when the American public needs to hear from our Commander in Chief.

So step up Mr. President, save the economy. I dare you.$$$
