      Nah, you can physically go to your bank and withdraw whatever you want. I once rage closed my accounts at a bank because they kept changing their rules everyday to squeeze various fees out of me. I had over twenty thousand dollars across three accounts and withdrew all of it in cash on the spot.

      Putting that money INTO a new bank account was the more difficult leg of that journey. Fortunately, I kept the withdrawal receipts from the previous bank to prove where the money came from.

        That would depend on your country/bank. In the Netherlands physical bank offices are getting more rare every year and a lot of them don’t have any facilities for handling physical cash, apart from ATMs. The ones that do often require you to request your withdrawal at least a day in advance for any larger amounts, with ‘larger’ being €10.000,- or so. And of course this will net you a nice registration as all large cash transactions will have to be registered to prevent white-washing. So this route is not going to fly here. I’d recommend just buying the entire bank, that’s probably easier. 😋

        You’re right. I was thinking of the ATM. That has limits, but going into the actual bank doesn’t now that I think of it.

          And you can change the limit of atm withdrawal as well. Mine is set to $1000 but I think I can tell them to make it higher.
