What legal reason would you have to carry four thousand dollars in hundreds in your wallet?

The only person I know for sure is actually doing it for an illegal reason. He owns a construction company, and pays all of his illegal immigrant workers in cash.

! I'm sorry Braeden, I'm sitting here laughing at you! It's practically 3am and I'm about to call it a night cause I'm tired and have no good comments to make!ROFL!

GASP!!! People coming to a bank to . . . GET MONEY????????Holy hell! The nerve of some people. I simply cannot believe it. Astonishing. That people think they can come to a bank and get money is just mind-boggling.

and here's the kicker, Bluedev. It's actually THEIR money!

Your bro and Shades said it best that got me laughing even harder!~!

SC -

Can't agree with you here. When the stupid newspaper finally gets around to giving me my 1099 (which will probably be AFTER my car breaks down, thank you very much!) we're putting a downpayment on a minivan and getting a brand new washer. Both of those purchases, if made with the debit card, are likely to "red flag" my account...it's far less hassle to make the vehicle downpayment and the washer with cash (we're NOT getting a cheapo washer). I realize it's inconvenient for you, but deal with it, bub! (Sorry, I can be snippy, too...remember, I too, deal with jerks...jerks who call when Chicago runs for their first touchdown, or when Manning...oh, wait, never mind...it isn't about me....LOL!)

But seriously, I get most of my tax check in cash for two reasons: 1. I have several big ticket items to purchase with the return each year; and 2. Because it's nice to actually HOLD that much cash, even if it IS just for a few hours!

I really wouldn't mind if a few people were doing it . . . but it's when the WHOLE WORLD is doing it at the same time.

But I'm a banker. I'm supposed to have loyalty to the system. when I have to make a large purchase, i just call the bankcard department and tell them I'm doing it so that they don't flag me.

Again, that's my job. I work at the bank. I have to love the products. It's in the job description.

Not necessarily, SC. I work in tech, and I hate Macs, Sony Vaio and any Windows product from the last millenium!

It might not be in yours, but I betcha "El Presidente" would whoop me if I was telling people that I hate banks and their products . . .

He'd give me a wedgie. I'm sure of it.

And I'd deserve it.

You FEAR the wedgie?

Embrace the wedgie, SC, embrace it. It is the birthright of a true geek.

I got to be honest and say I like it both ways (make of that what you will   ) I like cash, the way it feels and smells but I do appreciate a debit card and the ease with which I can purchase items virtually anywhere. But cash does speak louder and, in the right quantities, draws lots of pretty girls.

Now I know why I'm so lonesome . . . I need to use cash instead of my cards . . .
