Finance it Again, Tony: Might a merger of Chrysler and Fiat be good news?

It seems only yesterday they were the masters of the universe. Yet just yesterday, literally, my friends at Citibank fired an e-mail my way, inviting me to take advantage of exclusive "access to great concerts, dining, sporting events, and more."

All so I can pay them an additional charge.
