To laugh often and much; to win respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to leave the world a better place; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

But if you are still apprehensive, I found a site that rates the relative financial strength and stability of U.S. commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions.
