ING Plans to Sell ING Direct

Apparently my favorite savings bank, ING Direct, is set to be sold by 2013 by it's parent company, the ING Group.  I plan on keeping my ING account at least until I find out who they plan on selling it to.  It is FDIC insured so I'm not worried about losing my money.  I believe the bank is still in good shape, but even if it's not, your money should be safe and move seamlessly over to any new owner.

First-Time Homebuyer Credit Extended for Military
