How safe do you feel?

on a scale of 1-10 how safe do you feel with keeping a balance, any balance at an online book right now? Not looking for specific feelings on books or what you use or what your balance is, just how safe you feel your money is with all that has gone down with the poker crackdown and all that.

I would say I feel about a 7. Don't worry about it too much as I don't keep a balance that would break me if something happened to it, but I'm not going to say I haven't thought about it from time to time

I'm up to a 7 or 8 now. A couple of weeks ago, I was panicking and I would say I was at a 2 or 3.

Only one I have money on is bodog right now for poker purposes. After the black Friday of poker went down and bodog stood up I felt pretty good. Don't feel 100% safe, but good

I'd say a 4. Considering I had money in Netteller, Pokerstars, and Full Tilt when they were all shut down.

sure nothing is 100 percent safe, I get that point, but feel a little less safe in the events of the last few months, didn't ever really give it a second thought before
