Banking Tip- Try A Credit Union for Best Rates

A Tip from Tom- Today's Wall Street Journal Article:
Many Americans are pretty unimpressed with the banking industry right now. So maybe it's a good time to look at an alternative -- like moving your account to a local credit union instead.
These not-for-profit co-operatives have a kind of sleepy, backwater image. They're often seen as the local libraries of banking. But that's too bad. The chances are they didn't pay their chief executive $10 million while writing off billions in subprime loans. And they can offer you some surprisingly good deals.
To find one to join go to creditunion.coop, the Web site run by the trade organization, to find credit unions near you.
