The banks in Cyprus will reopen tomorrow and let account holders pull up to 300 Euros out a day. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty certain that if I lived in Cyprus I would want to get all on my money out of the bank as soon as I could. We thought we would ask our readers.....

Catastrophe in Cyprus: Desperate times call for desperate measures. Euro Troika (IMF/EU/ECB) aims bazooka squarely at depositors & fires: Outright theft and confiscation of private property...disaster ahead?
Despite the strange, absurd sense of normalcy that has somehow prevailed this week, the world is witnessing a horrifying, slow-motion bank robbery in progress. With hostages…lots of ‘em. Or maybe you could say it’s a financial train wreck? However you describe it, it is absolutely revolting in every sense of the word.
By now, you are probably well aware of the inexplicable, sordid details of this state-sponsored attack on the rule of law and confiscation of private property, so I won’t go into great detail about it, but I must say that I am still shaking my head in shock (and disgust) at what the unelected, non-accountable bureaucrats have unleashed upon the world.

I would like to repeat the idea that it is best to subordinate yourself to markets at all times. To put your ego aside or at least check it daily to make sure it is not leading you astray. The gold bug ego for example, hardened by a solid decade-plus of relentless bull market is in my opinion too set in its ways on balance. That is because it is an ego that knows it is right.

Cyprus has imposed limits on money transfers and hired extra security guards to prepare for the reopening of its banks, which have been shut for almost two weeks to avoid a run during the country's financial drama.
A banking official said Wednesday that new controls will include restrictions on large-scale transfers from the country's two largest and most troubled lenders, Bank of Cyprus and Laiki, when they reopen Thursday. Both are being restructured and big depositors face losses of as much as 40 percent.
Authorities are looking to increase the daily withdrawal limit from 100 euros to 300 euros (from $130 to $386), while payroll payments will be allowed in order to help businesses, which saw a huge slump as people cut down on their spending amid the uncertainty swirling about the banks.
