It's getting to be like the 80s again with banking...
You need a letter from Congress to withdraw more than $999 AND these skanks always ask what you're going to use the money for...I really hate that...at first basically told them to go scratch...then they became insistent
I just tell them:
I just want to have it
I'm paying myself back
Hot weekend - she wants to roll around naked with me on a bed of 100s - at my age, I'm not gonna argue - "You get what I mean, right? Right?" I try to make it as awkward for them as I can without being blatantly rude or vulgar... because fk you it's my money that's why
I'm buying another horse - They only take cash - You know how serious horse trading laws are, right?
I need a limousine for my escorts
I'm making a cash donation to the democrat party - they're in bad shape
Was buying Mrs TaQo's engagement ring long ago...and ouch it hurt REAL GOOD...as it should, youngsters... Anyway, they kept asking me what I was going to do with all that money and they were "real concerned I'd lose it gambling...", I said, "I work too damned hard for my money to throw it away at the casino... I'm going "all in", gambling my life and fortune on marriage...It could go either way... kinda like roulette" Then they were all like, "Aww! As they forked over a couple bricks of hundreds...So far, it's worked out...now it's a competition to see who dies first...lol ... only those married long enough will appreciate the humor 😁😁😁
LOL no they dont.
The bank can & will tell you to come back in a day; a week; whenver TF they want.
I believe that for the vast majority of banks, the average customer is legally considered an "unsecured creditor" which puts you at the absolute back of the line for getting repaid in case it comes to it.
I am my own bank,I have reserves of shiny metal,and some folding cash for emergencies. I do have accounts to pay bills and such,but I don't keep much extra in them.
Keep multiple accounts and one of them a credit union if you can.
Keep a reasonable amount of cash.

TaQo you are killing me with those excuses. 😂🤣
Nice. Anything worth doing, is worth doing many of / multiple times.....
😁🤣🤣🫡🫡🫡
Also; don't forget the blow!
You should have your primary account as a credit union.
Credit unions, unlike banks, can only operate with the money they have in accounts.
Banks run on fractional reserve banking.
And the “fraction” during Covid was changed to 0%.
In other words, whatever they want to loan, they can.
if you loan out $100 but demand $107 to be repaid, the bank has to find a way to make that extra $7 available for you.
now multiply that by every loan ever loaned.
the system requires endless borrowing
which is why you see all this fraud and nobody seems to care
they just have to find a way to get that money into circulation,
by any means necessary

At the end of the day.... It really doesn't matter because it all depends on what's in the ATM, which in most cases will be $0 if SHTF.

Yes...we belong to 3 Credit Unions...
My main bank is a credit union in my own town.
Ours too, we don't use banks..
😊
Or gold/silver/Oklahoma Goldbacks (legal tender in several states).
If SHTF, those will likely go up in value. I don't think we'll get a USD crash but it doesn't hurt.
Is that the same as the New Hampshire Goldback?
I can trade my silver for cash pretty easy here. The dealers only deals in cash,with no paper at all.
