WTF, $75k in cash? Not right to get robbed, but that's just fucking out of this world stupid to carry that much cash.
Fact is, if you're a business dealing with that much cash, you're using armored trucks.
Hell, if you can put $75k on a credit card, you'd get a shitload of points.
The fact she took that much out immediately means it get reported to the government.
do many private sellers accept credit cards?
You think $75K is so much money that you should call an armored truck to transport it?
So, if she was going to make a cash sale to buy property, buy a big boat, buy a collector car or maybe a motor home, do many private sellers accept credit cards?
So what, it happens all the time for any amount over $10K or even if you structure lower amounts.

Something doesn't make any sense. How did anyone know the women was going to withdraw cash that day to set the whole thing up. There is a LOT more to the story.
They will take a cashiers check.

Lol. Reading comprehension again. Where did I say that?

Cash based businesses use armored trucks.
She withdrew $75k and walked out of a bank. That's. Fucking. Retarded.
I used to keep $10-15k in cash at the house,
We'll just let the Walgreens manager run over to BOA and drop off that $40k in cash.
Yes or no. Carrying $75k cash is smart?
It's called a wire transfer. You do use a bank, right? Taking $75k of cash out and carrying it is probably a top 10 dumbest things I've heard anyone try to argue against. There are plenty of ways to get cash from one individual to another.
There simply isn't a discussion to be had here. I'm surprised you're wanting to have it.
Why would you want the government knowing about ANY of your finances wherever you can do it?

The bank tellers are all 1. poorly paid 2. resentful if your bank balance is huge 3
WookieMan saysYes or no. Carrying $75k cash is smart?
Depends what you're using it for. The article doesn't say. It could be or couldn't be. You have no facts to make that determination.
Here's another hint for you, a wire transfer ISN'T a cash transaction between two people.
We had a thread about this a while ago. She is a small business owner (gas station or something like that). Money was likely meant to be for paying contractors and/or employees under the table, which I can not blame her for - this is very common in ethnic and redneck neighborhoods in SE Texas.

You know Bob, once again, reading comprehension works wonders. Try reading the link in the OP and you'll see the bank teller send a text to her boyfriend that the lady was leaving with the money. Plus, in many cases when you withdraw this amount you have to give the bank a few days notice to get the cash together, so the bank knew when she was coming back.
Amazing that lack of real life skills for some here
. What if you're working a cash deal to get a bigger discount??? What a novel concept, right?
Wow saving a sub $10 fee for a cashiers check would certainly make all the difference in a 75,000 deal. ROFLOL
dumb and illegal
Dumb - no, she will save money on taxes
Gee, in my real life skills in even the smallest most podunk bank there is more than 1 teller in a bank as well as several bank officers. Most people would see the bank manager to set up a large cash withdrawal The odds of a particular teller having enough information to rent a car and set up accomplishes ahead of time are pretty low.

I can confirm this.
I was at my credit union trying to deposit a semi-large amount of cash ($3,500 for the sale of an ATV). The woman behind the counter casually remarked, "Based on your balance, perhaps you could look into one of our mutual fund investment accounts."
I do that all the time with cash deals.
I finally told them put a BIG note on my account to never ask me again... I now also try to deal with one or two tellers that know me, so they know the drill and just do what I ask them to do.
MrMagic saysI do that all the time with cash deals.
Sure right. I'm sure somewhere someone almost believes that.
Garage sales don't count.

But cars, boats, race cars, special equipment and RVs, do.
Why would they ask you anything in the first place?
If you've got lots of money, you're not actually going into the bank. You know that right?
They sell stuff to the little people.
Ahhh, I see.... I guess there's no reason to go in and cash a check then, and keep an established relationship with the bank?

Also, the 1980's wanted their check back so you can go "cash" it.
You really don't have money, do you?
I don't deal with anyone in a physical bank branch. I don't need to go there.
WookieMan saysThere's not a normal person here that would think bringing $75k in cash anywhere, regardless if it's for a transaction is smart. There are other ways to pay. You have to be right even though you're wrong. It shows.
Stop... just stop.... you're (lack of) real world experiences are really showing..
We paid over $60K CASH for a race boat, not a cashiers check, not a money order, not a wire transfer...
Let's see how smart you really are to see if you can figure out why.
The amount of energy devoted to this thread is staggering
Millenials...
Right on. I'm being a dick and can at least admit it.

Ah, it's because of the space in the name. I stopped allowing spaces in new names to fix that, but "Evan F." must be an older name and I don't want to force people to change existing names.

Is that one of the requirements to be a good moderator here?
